Capturing in the background
I am going through the PP Basic tutorials now. Thought that, while doing that, I might as well start capturing a ton of miniDVs I have laying around, knowing that is a slow process.
So basically work on the PC and listen and run tutorials while PP is capturing in the background. I ran into two problem trying that.
1) I could not find a way how to shut of the sound of what PP is capturing. I want to capture the sound of the tape, but do not want to listen to hours of it while capturing. Any way how to do that WITHOUT switching off all sound? I still would like to listen to music or tutorials while capturing.2) The question might be moot while each time I switch to a different program and start typing, PP capturing jumps to “pause”. Is that normal?
I tried to google these questions but a million unrelated posts came up whatever keywords I tried.

1. you cannot turn off the sound.
2. No that is not normal, but if you have tons of tapes to capture and you want them to be flawless. Dont do any else with the pc then capture.———————————————–

Ann is completely right, don’t do anything while capturing, it can cause many issues. I’ve made that mistake myself.
However, you may be able to turn off the sound if you really want to do some tutorials. If you are running Windows (I am using Windows 7), you can click on the sound in the lower-right corner and you’ll see “Mixer”. Click on that and you will see your applications running (i.e. Firefox, PP, etc.). You can then turn off the sound for just PP while listening to other things. I have never tried it while capturing, but since it is using PP I can’t see why not.
