JVC gr-270 drivers

Use firewire(DV terminal), some JVC models do not support USB streaming. Good Luck

Do I need a driver so that Windows XP recognize my JVC GR-D850 when I connect it thru USB port? If I need, where can I get it?

No driver required for Windows XP. I simply plugged in the camera via FireWire. Windows automatically recognizes it as a digital video device. Then I started up Windows Movie Maker and followed the wizard to capture the movie from my digital video device. It was really easy.

Try www.driverguide.com look up JVC miniDV USB. There are many drivers, you just need to try until you get one that works. USB will only transport over still pics, you need firewire for video transfer.

I had a similar issue. I had never been able to download video to computer because the computer never recognized the camera. As a last resort, I bought a new firewire cord today -- and my computer recognized the camera as soon as I turned the camera to play! It was four years in the making (I thought there was something wrong with my camera this entire time!), but it was just a cord issue. Now the cord that came with the camera is in the trash, and I can download video. I did buy an (XP) driver for I think $8 online, but I'm not sure whether that really had anything to do with it (I have SP3). I bought it from www.helpdrivers.com, and it was called the JVC / GR-D70U USB Mass Storage Class Driver + G.726 Decoder / Windows 98-98Se-Me-2000-XP, Item# 3021598. Downloaded it from the site. Hope that helps!

here is an usb driver for JVC cameras from GR-D20 to GR-D70 for windows XP:
http://odsiebie.com/pokaz/1654699---3329.html it's on free polish server

works on XP SP1, SP2 and SP3

a 1394 cable is specified for the GR - D - 270 but the GR - 270 U , not listed ( does your camera use VHS/c , or mini DV tape ? )

Didn't you get any CDs with it? You should put a CD in and point to it. JVC only lists upgrades on it's website, but maybe you could contact them and ask for a link to the original driver. I would think it's reasonable customer service. Basicaly it really should be recognized automaticaly by XP. If you get the Driver from JVC post a link here so that other users could benefit from it. Good luck, sorry I can't offer more help.
