| I recently bought JVC GR-DVM76U and I don't know how to transfer the video from my mini-DV to my laptop. I want to burn CDs after transferring the videos so that I can keep my videos safe and long lasting. I tried transferring the images from memory card to laptop using USB cable and it works fine but I don't see any option to transfer my videos. Any ideas or suggestions would be of great help. |

Keimo Alavursti | Hi, what you need is firewire cable and if your videocard doesn't have FW in, you need to get a videocapture card which has one (Hauppauge for example). Info on FW: FireWire is one of the fastest peripheral standards ever developed, which makes it great for use with multimedia peripherals such as video camcorders and other high-speed devices. The IEEE-1394 compliant FireWire cables shown below allow connection of IEEE-1394 FireWire enabled digital cameras, hard drives, scanners etc. to Mac's (like the Power Macintosh G3) and PCs having the high-speed FireWire interface. |
|
| I need to find out where I can dowmload the driver for my JVC camera, I can't get communication with my computer. |
|
Derek | Actually, you don't need a video capture card to move the video from the camera to the laptop. What Netcrazy needs is a Cardbus Firewire card for the laptop. Everybody sells them. Anton, your DV software should do this for you. Try stuff from Pinnacle Systems or Ulead. They make the best low cost video hardware/software. The free Microsoft Movie Maker II supports Firewire video cameras too. Also try http://www.jvcservice.com/custrel/download.htm or call JCV at 1-800-882-2345. Hope this helps. |
|
| I did not find any software for my camera JVC DV 105. |
|
| I have a panasonic DV camcorder and I connect through a USB port but I can only transferr 30 seconds of film is there any other free software were I can tranfer more film |
|
Derek | t, you need a firewire connection to your computer. Microsoft Movie Maker II will do it for free. Hope this helps. |

Anonymous | I have a JVC GR-D70 Model mini dv camera. I recently got a IEEE 1394 firewire card, and installed it on my computer, i also have the software, but i am stuck as to how to get my computer to recognize my camera ?! i tried installing it but it sais i dont have the appropriate driver !? what do i do ? |
|
| Hi, Recently, I have bought a Sony DCR-TRV27. I want to download only audio from it to my PC. What can I do? Thanks |
|
Derek | Connect the audio out from the camera to the line-in on your computer or firewire the entire video down and pull the audio out with Microsoft Movie Maker II or Media Encoder 9. They're both free. Hope that helps. |
|
| im tryin to take the footage from my camera and put it on my laptop i was wondering if i can use those white and yellow cables that came with the camera and if so where do i hook them to on the laptop because every website says to hook them up to the usb port but the cables are round and the usb port isnt |
|
| I have a a jvc GR DVM70U, Updated to Microsoft movie maker II, now I won't read the data from the camera. Message says verify that your video camera and capture devised are configured properly. I have tried JVC & Microsoft they keep blaming each other and no solution to the problem can anybody help. Thanks, Maurice |
|
Derek | JIMbo, to use the Yellow, Red and White wires from your camcorder, you need a Video capture card. ATI and others sell Video-to-USB capture cards. For a perfect copy, you sould get a Firewire Cardbus card for your laptop. Adaptec and others these cards. Maurice, I had a similar problem every once in a while with my ATI All-in-Wonder 8500-DV. It usually works, though. I ended up switching to an ASUS A7N8X-Deluxe that also has firewire and that solved the problem. Whose firewire card are you using? If your are using a low end card like SSI or Belkin, you may be forced to buy a more compatable card like the Adaptecs. Also, make sure your machine is fully patched and you ar using the lates driver from the firewire card's vendor web site. Hope this helps. |

ram | Hello Guys. I recently purchased a Sony MiniDV TRV33 which came along with Image mixer software to download videos using USB & ILink 1394. My camcorder gets recognized in USB mode but not in 1394 mode using my laptop. I checked the OS (Windows XP)it says the firewire is installed and everything seems to be fine but that software(Image Mixer) doesnt recognize my camcorder thru 1394. I think I have Texas Instrument card for firewire and drivers installed. Can anyone help me in fixing this problem? How could I verify whether my laptop (drivers installed has some problem or my software which came along with the camcorder has some problem or else my camcorder itself has some problem. Any help would be very much appreciated. THanks in advance. |

Ben M. | Hy, I have a JVC camcorder and I was wondering if I can trasfer videos to my laptop(apple) or use it as a web cam, my cuzin did. It is a GR-AXM230 it takes VHS-C tapes. The only ports on the camera are the DC-IN for charging the battery. But, there are two open yellow and white ports like on the TV. I watch the vids. by putting the small tape in the bigger one. I think I might need some cords, but i don't know what cords to by. I basically want to know how to hook this camera to my laptop. Someone please reply if they know anything about this. thxs |

Anonymous | I too have a Sony DCR-PC1E Camcorder and would like to use it (if I can) as a webcam, and to use it to transfer images (pics) onto my PC. apart from having it set up, a firewire cable attached to my Dell laptop WinME... what else is there to do to get the (still/movie) images to my laptop and maybe send them to my PC in an email, as my PC is a little older (Sept 98) but is now Win2000NT and only has USB ports. I feel I need to download drivers from somewhere for the unit to be used on my laptop. |
|
Lrob | DEREK, any suggestions... I'm using the A7N8X-Deluxe but have problems exporting my film fromm HDD to camera Sony VX1000 (DV in activated). The image exports fine using WinDV program but the sounds fades in and out continouesly on the camera. Have tried export through Premiere 6 and WMM2, but then, image & sound fade in and out. Any suggestions on how to resolve this annoying problem? The sound is 48000Hz, 16-bit from its origin to final film. Thanks for all inputs. |
|
Derek | You can use Windows Movie Maker II or Premiere. When you export it, you must set the software to "Export in Native DV" since that's the only format the camera can write. I've done with a Canon DV camera and I have the same motherboard. Also try upgrading your motherboard drivers. Nvidia just updated the nforce drivers to 3.31 a couple of days ago. Hope this helps. |

|
Derek | You can't use a DV camera as a webcam via firewire unless you buy this http://www.orangemicro.com/webcamdv.html driver. The DV jack is only for import and export of video and sound. You can use the DV camera as a web cam via USB but the camera must already support "USB Streaming" otherwise the camera will only dump about a minute of video. Hope this helps. |

LEE | NEED SOFTWARE FOR GR-DVL355 TO RUN ON XP CAN YOU HELP ME |
|
Clive | Derek, Does my unit, the Sony DCR-PC1 able to allow me to use it as a high quality web-cam and to allow me to put images or video onto my unit (PC or Laptop) and then save to DVD or CD. If so, what do you recommend, cable wise and what driver do I use to enable me to use it on my pc/laptop. Plus how do I know if it's "USB Streaming" Compatible. If the DCR-PC1 was able utilize the IE1394 and be USB compatible, would I therefore have full use of this unit as a webcam and to download images/video to my Laptop. In the meantime, can I get a driver to just transfer data from the DCR to my Laptop using IE1394 cabling using some sort of driver. If anyone else sees this, is the DCR-PC1 "USB Streaming" compatible.and can you get (IE1394 to USB) cables? as I'm not sure (as I speak) what cables would go into my Sony to then hook up onto my laptop. |
|
Derek | You will have to look at the specifications page of your cameras manual to see if you can do USB streaming. I think only the cameras made in the last year can do it. No cameras, except a few JVCs (Lee) require drivers under XP. It's plug and play. If your camera requires a driver it will be available on your vendors support websites. |

| I have a JVC GR-SXM74OU Cam corder. I'd like to download digital photos to my Laptop. I am trying to add a driver to my LapTop IBM thinkpad T20. I found the website you've mentioned... http://www.jvc.com/custrel/index.jsp but don't find where i can load a driver. Only the software which I don't believe adds a driver. When the CAM is USB'd to the Laptop, the Laptop doesn't even recognize it's connected. Any help would be much appreciated. |

| (Jvc GR-DV500) I am having trouble with Win Movie Maker It tells me that there is an "unspecified error" or "an interface has to many methods to fire from". I called Jvc and they told me to call microsoft. Can anyone help Jvc driver download site jvc.com/custrel/download.htm |
|
| Jesse, question asked When the CAM is USB'd to the Laptop, the Laptop doesn't even recognize it's connected. The camcorder has an option. its a blue switch you can either have it on "video or Memory" it needs to be on "Memory" in order for the computer to recognize it. after that you will see a usb mode on your lcd screen. ON desktop open "my computer" and click on "removable disk" open "DCM" right click on "100 jvcgr" copy and paste on desktop. Great shortcut to access photos. |

Unregistered guest | Hi all, I've recently bought a MiniDV Sony video camera (model DCR-TRV22E). I've some troubles in downloading my video on Firewire. After connecting the camera to the IEEE-1394 port of my notebook (ASUS A2H series) with e 4-4 pins cable it happens that during downloading (using Movie Maker II), but also in "idle" conditions, sometimes the camera seems to be disconnected from the IEEE port for a while and after few seconds reconnected. Note that using the USB connection instead, all things work perfectly (but with a worst image quality, of course). Please, can you help me to find out the reason of this disconnection? Thank you very much. Yours faithfully, Vincenzo. |

Silver Member Username: Project6Post Number: 370 Registered: Dec-03 | Michelle, Get a DVI to 1394 cable...that is if you have a 1394 or firewire connection to your pc. It is the best way to transfer videos from the jvc to any pc. KMW, the same applies to your dilemma. You only need a firewire to DVI cable. Your JVC should have one, and then you wouldn't need any other program. You wouldn't even need the program that came with your camera. Remove the jvc program, restart...plug in the DVI cable to the DVI output of the JVC and connect the 1394 end of the cable to your pc. Turn on the camera and the pc should start detecting the camera automatically. cheers |

joeskibobs Unregistered guest | OK -- LISTEN UP -- Most DV Cams have a 4 pin Firewire port, if yours has one then read on.... If you don't have a firewire port already on your PC, then get one, you can get PCI ones very cheap, They have 6 pin sockets for PC's and 4 pin sockets for Laptops. Once you have firewire on your PC you can connect your DV cam easily. Windows XP will automatically detect your camera if you have installed your firewire card properly. I don't know about other OS's Just think of Firewire as a bulky USB socket, because it is just a data transfer port. It is not a video card, or a video capture card it is just a firewire card. You then need a video editing program, microsoft have a freee one, but the one I use is Ulead video studio. It is excellent! If you have done all this then you will have succeeded, now stop asking the same question over and over!! |

Balu, goto control panel, performance and maintenance, system, hardware, device manager...from there look for IEEE 1394 and then enable it. Your drivers should already be installed. you only need to activate it. cheers |

Silver Member Username: Project6Post Number: 395 Registered: Dec-03 | zzKarenzz, could you be more specific as to your computer, what model, what is your operating system? Your question is a little too vague and general. there are different ways of transferring files from a digital camera to a computer. Knowing your system will help, i.e. Windows XP, 98, Linux, UNIX, Windows NT, etc. |

Silver Member Username: Project6Post Number: 414 Registered: Dec-03 | pat4352, first make sure that the camera is off before plugging into the firewire port. Make sure that the whole computer boots up completely before making any connections. if it is not working, goto the device manager and click on IEEE1394 properties and make sure that it is enabled and that the drivers are all installed. if you are running Windows XP and Windows Media 9 you should be up and running. cheers |
|
Silver Member Username: Project6Post Number: 415 Registered: Dec-03 | boytroy88, have you solved the issues with the JVC yet. What is you OS? did you update the IEEE1394 driver? Another thing...if you have fire wire, make sure that you do not have any other cables attached to your camera when connecting to the computer. |

yomgui Unregistered guest | which dvcam can stream video to a PC ? I need to do some real time video capture and programming on windows 2000. I was considering buying a "usb 2.0" or firewire webcam, then I realised that DVcams generally have firewire. but many posts here say that it won't act like a web cam (unless using special software). Is there any DVcam that will perform like a webcam through firewire ? thanks. |
|
Anonymous | You need to go to Microsoft's web site or even windows updates for a listing of DV cams that work with windows. Unfortunately windows does not supply and will not recognize many DV cams using a USB or FireWire port. I had to buy a AverMedia DVD EZMaker PCI Card in order to get my JVC DV cam to work on my computer. Go to http://www.avermedia.com the site explains what you need also the PCI card only cost me $35 and comes with an disk (small program) and cables. Good Luck! |

"I recently purchased a Sony MiniDV TRV33 which came along with Image mixer software to download videos using USB & ILink 1394. My camcorder gets recognized in USB mode but not in 1394 mode using my laptop. I checked the OS (Windows XP)it says the firewire is installed and everything seems to be fine but that software(Image Mixer) doesnt recognize my camcorder thru 1394. I think I have Texas Instrument card for firewire and drivers installed. Can anyone help me in fixing this problem? How could I verify whether my laptop (drivers installed has some problem or my software which came along with the camcorder has some problem or else my camcorder itself has some problem. Any help would be very much appreciated. THanks in advance. " |

New member Username: ThetaxidriverPost Number: 1 Registered: Apr-04 | Ha Ha Ha What a lucky day for all of Ya that i dropped by this place... i guess by now most of ya figured that converting mini dv to dvd is not a joke. There are LITERALLY books written on this subject. shortly: s/W that does the best job is: 1. Adobe Premiere (capture and editing) 2. Canopus Pro Coder (MPEG2 conversion) 3. ReelDVD (VOB files and Menu creation) If you want one suit that does it all, get Pinnacle studio 8 (or 9) but get ready to loose some quality (up to 50%) and not to be able to do some very important twiks. FYI when you use firewire you do not need drivers for your camera. Camera uses f/w drivers. Your capture suit (adobe premiere, sclive, ulead or whatever else) should find it when u click CAPTURE... If u use capture card (AV video), unless u have a REALLY GOOD CARD (>$1000), u loose at least 50% of your quality,,, then u do need drivers for the CARD. recently i came across A Sony camcorder (my friend bought one) and he asked me the same STUPID questions. Namely he wanted to know how to use USB to move video to his Mac. I told him to look in the Manual and learn... He cursed me out and asked to look at the damn manual... to my surprise in the entire 200+ page book there was not a word on how to move VIDEO from TAPE to a COMPUTER. There were at least 50 pages on photo crap... In short SONY suck, I mean it works but u have to dig info on your own... I use "Canon Optura 300" FYI (#2) in camcorders USB is used ONLY for still images and mpeg videos recorded to your MEMORY STICK. In order to capture video from TAPE, u MUST use either FIREWIRE (best quality) or AV output. Oh Yeah, not to mention that at least half of the DVD-+R media REALLY sucks. Lots of dvd players WILL NOT PLAY your recorded (cheap) media. Trust me on that one... I have wasted 2 months of my life copying some (consumer) DVDs, capturing my old tapes and putting them on some cheap, 'no name', DVDs... Well, did I learn my lesson?.. ALL of them play (more or less OK) on my computer, but my (multi region, multi system, super duper) DVD player did not want to believe me that there was ANY dvd in the tray. ONLY when i began using GOOD media (Verbatim, FUJI) my 'les misarables' were over... Go to these websites, there is some interesting stuff to read there: www.doom9.net www.riphelp.com for those lucky people that read Russian there is an invalueble site: www.afanas.ru So Long. |

Silver Member Username: Project6Post Number: 505 Registered: Dec-03 | what cable are you using? DVI to IEEE1394 should be the cable you are using. First the camera must be off when you connect to the 1394 port, then turn it on, you should have a pop up that says "new device detected". Make sure that the whole computer boots up completely before making any connections. if it is not working, goto the device manager and click on IEEE1394 properties and make sure that it is enabled and that the drivers are all installed. if you are running Windows XP and Windows Media 9 you should be up and running. |
