Off Topic - stereo to PC question

I suppose you've tried connecting the line out on the stereo to the line in
on the peesee? :) That is the normal way ;)

Seriously, it's not difficult. The cable should look something like this:


-)<signal>.........................
 |_<ground>--------------------- ...
                              ..|....>---
                              . |____|
-)<signal>..................... |
 |_<ground>---------------------


Where -) is an RCA plug, the outer shield on the plug is ground, and the pin
is signal.

>--- is a 1/4 inch headphone style plug. The bottom-most segment is ground,
and the top two are signal, I think. Connect each RCA signal wire to its
own signal segment on the 1/4" plug, and the grounds to the ground.

This is straight from memory, but I think that's the way it works.

Sorry I can't tell you which segment to use for left and which for right.

You should also be able to buy prefabricated cables at radio shack or
somewhere if you like.
