I was in the middle of recording a slideshow from PowerPoint to my VCR
when the video portion (MPEG) slide section just went black and did
not record. The video clip was displaying on my laptop but it wasn't
transfering to the VCR for recording. I am using s-video to relay
video directly to the vcr and sound is direct from my sound card. The
strange thing is that the video's sound is coming through but just not
the video footage. All of the other slides of still pictures came
through beautifully. Am I missing something? Any suggestions on what
might be wrong? Thanks.
 
Try switching the video output from the computer to the
S-video output only, disabling the laptop screen for the
time your transfering to the VT machine.

In Display Settings you should be able to change the Primary Display to the
TV output. This will allow the video to play on that output.
