Yellow is normally video and black (mono or stereo depending on plug) or Red
and White cables are normally stereo audio.

You state that Audio works great...Can't seem to get audio in. What do you
really mean?

If you are having trouble with audio input, make sure that the black cable
is plugged into either the Microphone or Aux input in your sound card. Once
that is done, double click on your sound icon in the System Tray. Your
master volume window will open. Click on Options then Properties, then
Recording. Make sure that at least Stereo Mix, Aux, Line In, Microphone are
checked. Click OK. If you have Stereo Mix available (not all systems do)
have that selected (check mark in the white box at the bottom) otherwise
select the device input that you have your black cable plugged into (mic or
aux or line-in).

When you click Capture from video device, you should see your audio card's
specifications in the first screen. Audio Input source should be Stereo Mix
or Microphone or Line In or Aux, depending what you selected above. Make
sure that the volume slider is well above the bottom of the scale.

Good Luck.
