Hi - Just set up OBS to capture Vhs signal. In source panel i have Video Capture Device and Audio Input Device. In AID properties have Dazzle audio device selected, same with VCD properties. Picture is good but no audio registering in Audio Mixer. I have Audio Input Source meters showing in Audio Mixer but no signal, not hearing anything when VHS is playing back. It must be a simple fix but for the life of me cannot get audio signal. Tried multiple tapes that i know have audio on them. Appreciate any ideas on how I might solve this.

I know this is a bit old now but I just downloaded OBS Studio today and ran into the same problem of no audio coming through from my Dazzle. It would not show up in the Audio Mixer even though it was selected. Another post here had a link to this video - https://youtu.be/tk-n7IlrXI4?si=Vxn66WNQqIDFrs_D
If you haven't found a solution, this looks good and might work for you. I followed all his suggestions in tweaking the settings and then in the final Troubleshooting section he made a suggestion that worked for me. Just bypass the Dazzle with the audio lines directly into the computer. I had no audio line in but I had a microphone input. So a 2xRCA to mini stereo cable and 2 RCA female/female adaptors. Then in OBS I added a new Source and selected Audio Input Capture and then selected the front microphone input and bingo ... I now have a working audio input capture in the Audio Mixer and a test video has recorded the audio.
