usb connection
xoutplays asked:


I have 3 cameras and all are over 500.00 in value one is actually 2999.99 but I want to be able to transfer it to my computer and edit so I can make profesional videos well low buget but still professiona. I have video express but when I use that when it goes to my computer it keeps the battery bar and everything on the video and that makes it not even youtube ready. I just want to be able to transfer from my camcorder to computer without firewire because I don’t know how to use the firewire connection and I like the usb. 1 of my camcorders can’t even use the video express so how will I just use the USB to transfer the videos. Thanks for any answers.

  • hmm…i’ve encountered that problem before. it turns out that the “display” setting on my sony camcorder was set to v/out-lcd, which meant that whatever was on the lcd would appear in the video out signal.

    as for using usb. i once saw a firewire to usb cable. though i don’t know how effective that is. or if it even works.

    hope this helps.

  • if you are going to write dvds and do editing on the videos you film, you are going to have to learn to use a firewire card. USB is for transfering photos, not video. It can do it, but you lose frames which results in poor quality. Buy a firewire card, they are cheap and buy some good capture/edit software like Nero 6 (also cheap) and read the help files and manuals and learn to do use them.
