JVC Camera and JLIP software

Hello,

I wonder if someone can help me?

I have been trying to set up the following combination for my brother.

JVC Digital Video Camera GR-DVL150

HS-V4Kit
JLIP Video Capture software
JLIP Video Producer software

PC Digital Photo lead 2.5mm 3-pole to 9 pin serial

We are not having any success, the PC does not 'see' the camera, I
tested the serial port by doing a direct cable conection to my
notebook, this worked fine)

I am not sure if the V4 kit is compatible, as the handbook says use a
V16 kit, (but JVC told my brother the V4 kit is compatible)

Also he was told by JVC to buy the above lead, however I think he may
need a JLIP 3.5mm 4-pole to 9 pin serial cable ?

If anyone can throw some light on this problem I would be very
gratefull.

What is the difference between PC (digital Photo) and JLIP ?

Regards

Dennis
