Hello,
I have a Sony HRC-20 miniDV camcorder and want to transfer my home videos to
my hard drive for burning to DVD. I just installed a firewire card and DVD
burner. The burner came with Nero but I am clueless as to how to use the
capture video function.
It will bring up a capture video window with a preview pane and all that
good stuff but nothing like a "transfer" button or anything. If I hit play
it will play back my tape in the preview pane. Is this "capturing" the video
to the hard drive or merely playing my tape on the computer? It has a record
button but i'm afraid that this will just record what's in front of the
camera and tape over what I already have.
A friend recommended transferring the video via Windows Movie Maker. Any
thoughts or advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
SP
