Unfortunately even with a Composite cable it's not working. I'm at the end of my rope on this and getting extremely frustrated. Does anyone have a suggestion of what capture software I should be using etc? Some of the programs don't recognise a camera being connected at all, and others just show a black screen. With the S-video cable I at least got a b/w image, with composite it's just blank.

Well, I'm using an S-Video cable because that's what was connected to it when I received it. That's what the previous owner had been using to connect to their internal video tuner card. Their card unfortunately only gives me black and white feed when installed in my PC, and yeah, can't install it in my laptop to try. As an external option I've currently got a Compro Technology video tuner that, once again, gives me only b/w feed (and quite fuzzy) Thankyou for the info, I think I'll have to head out tonight with the cable and ask a electronics supply store for the composite equivalent for the outgoing connection.

Hello, I've been lucky enough to get a Panasonic WVCP410 analogue colour CCTV from a medical practitioner on their retirement (used for human iris imaging) and have very excitedly been trying to hook it up to my PC and laptop. On their advising I'm currently using a video capture cable and after much head scratching I've managed to get a picture. It's pretty clear but alas, there's no colour! As they don't have any answers for me ("It's always worked just fine on my laptop") I was wondering if any kind soul could point me in the general direction of how I should be going about setting up this unit for image capture. So far I've tried numerous PAL and NTSC settings on two different S-video cables and 3 different capture software programs (only getting a black and white picture on 2 - on the 3rd it doesn't even detect a camera attached). I have the manual for the camera, but it doesn't give me any troubleshooting or PC attachment installation information, The camera won't be used for continual recording, but for medical purposes for skin and eye closeup analysis - so image snapshots taken with video capture software. Thankyou in advance for any ideas.
