Easiest way is to get stand alone dvd burner. You could use the Dvdirect from Sony. You plug in the camera into the recorder hit play on the camera then record on the burner. That is the easiest way to transfer tape to dvd. Then your able to put it on your hard drives. Hope this helps.

Hi, i am having panasonic nv gs-90 mini dv camcorder and the problem is how to copy files from tape to my pc. what is the procedure and which cables i need to have, hope you will reply soon

You need a firewire cable and a firewire card on your computer if it doesn't already have a firewire connector.

Then you'll need a capture software if you don't have windows movie maker.

Hope you can start making movies soon! :)

Hi how are u sir ? i have panasonic -nv-gs25 camara and i want to copy video from min dvt tape into hard disk trhough usb cable. film show result on pc but copy and paste is impossible plz help me for...

You will require a firewire cable to transfer the tape to a pc. Movie Maker should be on all later model PCs.
You will not be able to see the video like you can on an external drive. The tape must be transferred in real time. That means 30 minutes will take 30 mins to copy.

Cannot transfer tape contents to PC

Hi,
To transfer video from your camera you will need a firewire cable and a firewire port on your PC. If you don't have such a port you can buy a PCI firewire port.
After you connected your camera with firewire cable you can then use windows movie maker to transfer your video.

How to get my PC recognize the Panasonic NV-GS15

Solution A: make sure you are using the correct cable for what you are doing (eg USB for webcam and importing photos and Firewire for transferring video footage

most desktops have firewire plug in them but laptops don't usually

to get a firewire plug in a laptop you need a PCMCIA to Firewire Cardbus (ask your local retail store for one or buy one on ebay etc.)

after that put the cardbus in your PCMCIA slot and restart

then go to Windows Movie Maker and press "capture from video device"


hope this helps!
