Ask Camcorders

How would I transfer the data (video) I’ve recorded on the mini DV cassette onto my laptop, where it can be edited? FireWire? I don’t think the camcorder came with the necessary USB extensions.

I recorded footage on my Samsung digital camcorder using a Maxwell DVD-RW mini disk. All the footage can be viewed on the camcorder, but not on my computer, laptop or DVD player.

Is there any way I can retrieve the files from the disk?

Are they like psp disks where it is inside a case or are they physical discs?

Also are they re writable.

I am thinking about buying this camcorder

I just lost my cord for my camcorder. I was just wondering where I could purchase another one as I can’t find them in the online stores and I don’t really trust the electronics on e-bay.

Thank you in advance for reading

I went to Radio Shack and the person looked at me like I was crazy. Also, my computer won’t read the mini-DVD disc. The camcorder website was no help, either. I know there has to be a way to do it, I just don’t know what. Thanks!

Well, the question pretty much states it all. Does anyone know how to connect a JVC camcorder to a computer?

I have a VHS-C camcorder and was wondering how you can capture video from it into the computer? My computer doesn’t have any inputs, such as, composite, component, S-video, so can I hook up the camera using a USB cord?

I bought a Sony TRV255E PAL camcorder a while ago and had the software on my computer, though now I’ve upgraded to Vista and lost the software/ Drivers disc. I want to get the footage off the tape and onto the computer. I tried to get the drivers from Sony but they wanted the CD key, which is with the disc I lost. Any suggestions?

Samsung digital camcorder.. video on on memory card. When I plug the camcorder into the computer via USB, only the audio plays. No video. I downloaded the drivers.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks

I need a DVD Camcorder that can hook up to a computer for EAST Lab….Can you help me?

I have got a JVC Panasonic camcorder and I don’t Know how to transfer all the videos to my comp as my comp is unable to read the device, when I hook up the USB Wire connecting the computer to the camcorder…Suggest some softwares or any extra wires I might need.

I want to edit the video and then post it onto youtube.
My camera uses a video tape, it’s a panasonic, mini dv, 24x optical zoom, 800x digital zoom. Also is this camcorder good?

I want to buy a camcorder, but would rather buy a digital which is less expensive but more recording time and options for money. How do I know if my computer is capable of burning the downloaded info on to a DVD? I do have a dvd/cd-r drive. If not I may just have to purchase a DVD camcorder.

I bought a used Panasonic DVD Camcorder, model number VDRM53 and now need a cable to connect it to my computer. Do I buy a AV cable or an AC cable?
