I have a non digital 8mm Sony camcorder, can I copy the film on DV with an USB port?

If USB socket is not installed in your camera then you have to buy a convertor, the converter will sit between your pc, and your camera, and will convert your VHS recording to MPG format.

Lets see, I have a Sony TRV camcorder. Is that what you mean? It will connect to the computer via firewire or usb.\n\nYou can load the video from the tape to the hard drive with appropriate software. Then play it back through windows.

If you could post what brand and model camera you have it would help.\n\nThis is done using a fire wire cable. (also call IEEE 1394 interface)\n\nyou will need a fire wire card in your computer to get the video.\n\nwindows movie maker can read the video but it is not the best app but if you have xp you have it.\n\nI like Nero's software. it easy to use and it will capture ,edit and burn your video. You can also save it to your hard drive if you do not wish to burn.\n\nif you have a mac all you need is the cable and i movie.\n\n\nmost cam's support usb because they have a built in picture function. This is rarely used to send video.\n\nneros dvd software is easy to use

You can get an adaptor (like a Dazzel) that attaches to a VCR or camcorder and to a USB port to pull the movie into a program like studio 9.  Be warned, however, that if it is a commercial tape you will get a poor quality movie plus, even under the best possible conditions, it will never equal the quality of a DVD.  I have converted some family tapes to DVD, they are watchable but the quality is not what we expect from a DVD.

No. 8mm and VHS-C are different sizes. the 8mm wont fit in the adapter properly.

Yes, but you will require a piece of hardware: a video capture device.  These allow video input to the pc, and can be used over USB, FireWire, etc.\n\nYou should be able to pick one up on ebay for a few bucks (20-30 for an older model, 50-60 for something new).

Do it at home, project the film and record it with a digital camcorder, then burn it using your computer. Otherwise you are looking at expensive equipment so you may want to contact a photo or video shop.

if your camera have an infrared transmitter you can use it, otherwise do it the old fashion way, via USB cable

Your digital camera probably came with a USB cable. You connect the cable to the digital camera on one end and to the USB port on the other. If you have a newer computer, you can just take out the memory card and put it into its respective slot on the harddrive.\nThen you go to My Computer to find the device, and then it will let you open to see your files and then from there you can transfer them to somewhere on your harddrive.

Oh, that's easy.  You can just get an audio recorder and record the video as it plays.  Then convert the recorded audio to mp3.\nIf you don't like analog, and the m4v is unprotected, then convert it to an avi (with a program like PocketDivxencoder) and use a program like windows movie maker to extract the audio.  If it's protected... tough luck!

Best bet would for you to choose ones that you can afford or are willing to pay for and post back with those specs and then we can suggest the best one. I think pinacle do a break out box or something like that which may or may not be useful to you depending on how you plan to capture the audio / video content to the laptop ??\n\nIm assuming this will be via some cam corder , will it be analogue or digital camcorder and what connectors has the camcorder(s) in question got in terms of connectivity to allow you to connect it to the laptop or whatever you plan to connect it to ie the break out box ( or whatever they call it )

Ok simple answer, you have to goto your menu settings on your camera and find the usb setting. when you switch this on it will enable usb connectivity between your camera and pc.\n\nHope this helps...

You can do it using the RAD Video Tools, free download.  There is more information on this if you go to www.papajohn.org > Import Video Source Files > Video > .MOV.

I'm not familiar with your cam but I'll do the best I can here.\n\nIf you have a USB connection you can do it that way.\n\nSome of the newer computers you can take the card out of the cam and put it into a slot in the computer.\n\nSome real nice software to put your movie together would be a big help too.  I use muvee Technologies.\n\nGood luck!!

You may have to tell the software driver to switch from the composite input to the SVHS (s-video) input..\nUnfortunately you didn't say what A/V to USB converter you are using.

You'll need a video capture card that simply plugs into a PCI slot, and tehn you just plug the camera in. \n\nWindows XP comes with it's own movie making software, but assuming you have  DVD drive, chances are you'll already haveing the POwerDVD suite of software, which will allow you to create movies and burn them to DVD.\n\nThere is a vast array of video capture cards on the market - make sure that the one you get has the appropriate connections for teh cam - typically the red, yellow & white AV sockets.

My source has a quick step by step how to insert a movie clip as well as some noted compatability issues regarding their use. Good luck, let us know how it turns out.
