I have a GR-D295U camcorder. Can I get a cable that connects the mini USB connector on the camcorder to a regular USB connector on the computer? Thanks, Rene

The battery is very likely BAD (has high internal resistance)! Can you take the battery OUT, and run with ONLY the charge cable attached? Does that make any difference in performance?

You didn't make the problem of JVC GR-D295 DV Camcorder clear.You'd better supply more detail. Good luck!

You can buy that cable from Maplin UK on 01603 630 044

Please check your drivers are on the PC for your camera so the PC can see your camera connect to it, when you plug your camera into the PC USB slot you should see a message come up near the bottom right-hand corner telling you your connection has been made, if not then your camera driver is either missing or damaged, go to camera makers site and download driver again.
Good luck.

you need an iLink cable. Also known as a mini-i400 or Firewire Mini. If you have standard 6-pin Firewire (IEEE1394) on your PC, you can get a converter cable which is i400 one end, 1394 the other.

Please use Mini DV Video head cleaning cassette as it seems video head is dirty / clogged in camera.

I think you'll find what you need on www.safemanuals.com.

Hi, Beside the dv cable, your PC must have a firewire card. USB connection is no good to transfer video to your PC. I have no problem with windows XP. See http://www.videohelp.com/. good luck
