[Blind-Computing] Recording with line in

2009-12-16 Thread Elaine
Hi guys

wonder if anyone could help?  I am recording from TV  satellite on to my 
computer using line in and a RCA/stereo cable.  doesn't appear to matter what 
volume level I use, I hear a humming sound in the background of the recording.  
does anyone know what causes this annoying sound and if I can find a way of 
removing it.

I have gold wave and have tried to filter the sound out, but it then distorts 
the rest of the recording

I've replaced the cable and tried a different computer, with no change, so I 
can only assume it's something to do with my satellite box.

any help would be appreciated.

thanks in advance

Elaine

You might try hooking the earphone jack from the satelite TV to the line in
on the computer.
