Just got a new Panny mini DV for the upcoming baby, (and Christmas and the like...), Will be burning dvds to save for the future.
The mini has DV out and USB out. I assume the DV out is firewire?? Which is the better connection?
I need to check, but as my Dell is quite new, I think I have firewire ports. If so, what is the best way to capture? Will I have to actually PLAY the tape and RECORD it on my PC? I think this is what I read in the manual.
Will windows recognize, and will their capture be sufficient? Or should I buy NERO, or smething similar? I have Dell Media Experience, Windows movie maker, Power DVD, ARCSoft Video Impression, etc..
Oh yeah, UG
Thanks guys
