if you want to transfer from VHS or an analog camcorder you need a capture card or TV card (some mother borad and graphic card have this on board).but if you have a DV camcorder check this: if your computer and camcorder have fire wire port (IEE1394) use it and otherwise use USB (low qualty). for software I could suggest video studio, adobe primaire (full or element) windows movie maker, or any othe program which comes with you camcorder. I hope this helps...

Toshiba dvr19dtkb2 dvd wont play on computer after transfering form video casette

The proper codec may not be loaded on your computer. Find the format your DVD recorder uses, Google for a codec for that format. Find a player that supports the code, download and install it onto your computer and then try the DVD.

How to transfer iPod iPhone recorded video to Computer and YouTube

After the Christmas, you may get a new iPod Nano 5 Generation (with video camera). You took some funny videos with it and you want to transfer the recorded video to computer, edit the record video with Windows Movie Maker or upload them to YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, etc. It's easy to do that, and this guide will show you the detailed steps to make full use of the iPod recorded video.

Step1. In order to transfer the video computer, you have to enable iPod disk use at first. Plug in your iPod Nano to computer, run iTunes and select the iPod in the device list, go to the Summary tab. Then you will see the "Enable disk use", check it and click the Apply button. It's the same for Mac user to enable iPod disk use.

Step2. Because iTunes prevent you copying the non-purchased file from iPod to computer, you need an iPod transfer software to copy the iPod video, I have tried many iPod transfers, and this iPod transfer works best for the iPod Nano recorded video. I have scanned it with Norton Virus Protector, it's safe without any virus and spyware. Download and install it, connect your iPod to computer. Then run the iPod Transfer, it will search the iPod automatically; and all files on iPod will return in a list.

Step3. Choose the recorded video that you want to transfer, and click "Export" to begin the transfer; it can help you copy the recorded video to computer or iTunes, that's all. You can also use it to transfer music and photos from iPod to computer, it's really use when your computer crashed and you lost all the files.

Once you transfer the video from iPod to computer successfully. the iPod recorded video is H.264 video, and YouTube, MySpace, Facebook both support AVI and MPEG video. If you want to upload the recorded video to YouTube, Myspace or Facebook. You have to convert the video to the right format at first. I have tried many video converters, and this video converter works best for the iPod recorded video.

Download and install the video converter, then click "Open File" to import your iPod recorded video, click the profile to choose the "AVI – Audio Video Interleaved (.avi)", and then click “Convert”, it will take a few minutes to convert the video. And the converted video will save in C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentsCucusoftConverterOutput
Then you can log in YouTube and upload the video, done.

I have the HC700 sony and i am unable to record longer than 9 minutes can you help please

Be sure that there is enough memory that will store the recorded video. If there wasn't enough memory then delete or transfer important recorded video on your pc by downloaded it. If you still use the casette tape, be certain that your battery is in good condition and setting for video is in the right place. I hope my advise will help you.

CANNOT GET TO TRANSFER MY VIDEO FROM MY CASETTE CAMCORDER TO THE COMPUTER USING MY 4POINT FIRE WIRE CABLE,THEY SAID I CAN USE THE ADOPTER AND THE FIRE WIRE CABLE IF I DON'T HAVE THE JACK FOR THE IEEE 1394...

you will need to hook your camera up to the fire wire to transfer itto the converter so connet the firewire to the camera and hit the play button however I don't know if your converter has a program that finalizes the video once your done recording. On some camera's it will finalize the DV and then it is the only thing you can use to transfer to the DV converter or to your computer, let me know what type of camera you have and I can tell you how to connect it to do it.

I want to transfer casettes to a cd.

Hi
To transfer any audio or video casette to cd you need an audio casette player/vcp or vcr for playing back the video on the computer, a video capture card installed on the computer and the software to capture the video like Pinnacle which will save the audio/video file in mp3, mpeg format on the computer. The casette player or the vcr can be attached to the computer tower through the video capture card.

Sony digital 8

You need some hardware to transfer the tape digitally to your computer. I use a cheap device from Best buy that ran around twenty bucks. It has software with it and everything. Basically its a device that has RCA ports and an S-Video port on one side and connect to the computer through USB. Its kinda a headache cause you have to play the Digital 8 tape through the hardware on to the computer and save it as a MPEG. Then you can put it on a flashdrive or email it to people. Much easier just to get a digital video camera if you have the funds.
