I'm trying to record sound clips from movies.

I'm using my laptop and a ps3 and running the audio cables from the audio out on the tv into the mic input on my laptop using .25inch and .8inch adapter.

And i'm using windows sound recorder to record it.

But it's not working. I've done it before, a few years ago, but not sure what i'm doing different.

Should I run it through the output on a dvd player maybe?

Also using windows vista what recording settings should I have on? The input devices or the mic's or what?
