vhs to avi

[theboozer]

hello i want to convert some old home movies from Vhs to avi or some other digital format.
Whats a good easy to use and configure app that might help me do this?
Im a mandriva user currently not having much luck at with the apps ive tried so far .
I have the vcr connected to a capture card and the audio connected to line 1 (the blue input).
I have no trouble bring up the video but mapping the audio to it is another issue.
All thou its playing from line 1.
any ideas?

this is how i was able to capture vhs from a VCR plugged into my capture card and the audio plugged into the blue line in plug on the back on my mother board on board sound to .avi files.

i was now able to record with the VLC record button . Note the mixer setting also.
I had the following vlc packages installed some may not be needed

then i selected input 1 for my capture card
and audio 1 for line in audio input
and i had to select stereo and left every thing else at default -1 I did select pal as its a pal vcr plugged in.

which generates the command
vlc v4l2:// :input-slave=alsa:// :v4l2-standard=0:v4l2-standard=255 :v4l2-chroma= :v4l2-input=1 :v4l2-audio-input=1 :v4l2-io=0 :v4l2-width=-1 :v4l2-height=-1 :v4l2-aspect-ratio=4\:3 :v4l2-fps=0 :v4l2-caching=300 :no-v4l2-use-libv4l2 :v4l2-tuner=0 :v4l2-tuner-frequency=-1 :v4l2-tuner-audio-mode=1 :no-v4l2-controls-reset :v4l2-brightness=-1 :v4l2-contrast=-1 :v4l2-saturation=-1 :v4l2-hue=-1 :v4l2-black-level=-1 :v4l2-auto-white-balance=-1 :v4l2-do-white-balance=-1 :v4l2-red-balance=-1 :v4l2-blue-balance=-1 :v4l2-gamma=-1 :v4l2-exposure=-1 :v4l2-autogain=-1 :v4l2-gain=-1 :v4l2-hflip=-1 :v4l2-vflip=-1 :v4l2-hcenter=-1 :v4l2-vcenter=-1 :v4l2-audio-volume=-1 :v4l2-audio-balance=-1 :no-v4l2-audio-mute :v4l2-audio-bass=-1 :v4l2-audio-treble=-1 :v4l2-audio-loudness=-1 :v4l2-set-ctrls=
