How to copy from sony handycam dvd

[salmonhouse]

Hello,
I plug my camcorder into my computer via usb, but can only play it. I do not know how to copy it. I use windows 7.

First, here is how to copy a video file from the DVD to your computer.

Place the dvd into your DVD drive. If Windows Media Player opens, just
quit out of it.

Next, go to "My Computer" and right click on the DVD drive, then left click
on "Open." You should see a folder named "DCIM." Open it, and inside of it
should be at least two folders. Open the one named "VIDEO;" most likely it
will be named "VIDEO_TS."

Inside of that folder should be your video files. If there is more than one
you should be able to double click on one and preview them in Media Player
to find the one you want.

Once you locate the one you want, right click on the file name, then left
click on "Copy." Then go to "My Documents," and then "My Videos," right
click within that folder, and left click on "Paste."
