Can all camcorders be hooked up to the internet? I want to film myself playing piano, and post it on youtube.?

Question

The camcorer is a GR-AXM250 Compact VHS Camcorder. Can this be hooked up to the internet with a usb cable, and then save the video I recorded to the computer, and then post it on youtube?

Answer 1

If it is a VHS camcorder, there is no USB port (unless it is for transferring stills off a memory card).

To connect the camcorder to your computer, you need an "analog/digital bridge" like those from Pinnacle

or Canopus

Then you import the video and edit using MovieMaker, save as a file type YouTube accepts (AVI, MOV, MP4 are most common) and upload.
