tigeon.bix 0 Posted December 6, 2010 Hi i dont seem to figure out how to listen the audio, to the computer. I can listen to it fine when i connect the speakers, from the audio out. HOwever when i try to plug another cable with Rca jack adaptors plugged into the notebook, i cannot hear any sound. Can it be done ? Thanks for help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soundy 1 Posted December 6, 2010 So... you're trying to use your notebook to listen to the audio from your DVR? Seems to me you'd normally just do this via the remote client... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigeon.bix 0 Posted December 7, 2010 HI Thanks mate it is so indeed . However i was thinking that, when plug in directly a mic into the notebook, i can listen to my voice ,,, so it should be when i plug in the jacj from the dvr. There could be another way not to use external speakers, and only use the computer's speakers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soundy 1 Posted December 7, 2010 Well, it really depends on the notebook. Some of them, the mic input will ONLY work with a mic, not a line source. You may need to go into the mixer and turn up the mic input, or select it as a source. Newer sound cards/chips actually allow you to define any jack as an input or output, and some will auto-detect what type of device is plugged into it... it may be detecting your feed wrong and configuring it as an output. Really hard to say with just this, because there are so many possibilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
