Using Windows Movie Maker, it's easy to capture video and audio to your computer.
Equipment & Computer Requirements
What you need to “capture” and then “save” your video clips.
Equipment required:
- MiniDV digital video camera
- MiniDV tapes
- Computer that supports a digital video connection
- i.Link port (also known as FireWire or IEEE 1394) on your computer
- Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 2, or VISTA which includes Movie Maker 2.1
- Tripod
- CD burner
- Blank CD or DVD
Connection
i.Link/FireWire/IEEE 1394
Recommendation
The easiest way to connect your camera to your computer is with an i.Link (also known as FireWire or IEEE 1394) cable. If you don't have a FireWire port on your computer, you (or a professional at an electronics store) can install an i.Link adapter. Your digital video camera kit will include the proper cable.
