This is Mrs. Prema karthikeyan
connect your camcorder through usb. open window movie maker.

click task
.....capture from the video divice
....., collect them in collection folder
..drag to storey board.
here you can give video effects, titles of different styles, and narrate in your voice too.
save the project. here you will get the destination. or
you can directly make a cd or dvd.

hope i am clear.

there is another way. if you feel you need pl. do write to me. my id; [email protected]

( if your camera has it ) try the firewire - with roxio or other editing software and check the camera ' s interface . . . first ;

Hello, i have a problem with my handycam Sony DCR-HC-30E PAL, when i conect to computer with picture package to make a VCD, the software does not recognize drive to rec vcd. Sorry my English...

Hi, Check if it has the firewire port. If so, you can get a 4 pin firewire cable and connect to the PC and record/ download the videos using Windows Movie Maker.

4 pin firewire would look like this:

You can use the Movie maker to burn it to the Disk

Problem in burning vcd from handycam

THERE IS ANOTHER WAY TO MAKE VCD. GO TO MOVIE MAKER. CONNECT HANDYCAM TO PC AND PLAY THE VIDEO. ON MOVIE MAKER START CAPUTURING THE IMAGE. A WORD OF CAUTION. GO TO VIDEO SETTTINGS AND SELECT 640 X 320 RESOLUTION FOR BETTER QUALITY VIDEO OUTPUT AND VIEWING. WORKS GREAT. THE PROBLEM OF NOT ABLE TO DETECT DRIVE POSSIBLY IS DUE TO THE CD/DVDW NOT IN THE LIST OF DRIVES DETECTED BY PICTURE PACKAGE. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED FOR LAST MANY YEARS AND NO DEFINATE SOLUTIONIS FOUND ON THE NET.

Not able to make VCD

The reason is: The supplied software 'picture package' cannot identify your CD Rom. Try any other capturing softwares such as ULead.
