How to import MiniDVDRW to Computer?

Question

I have a Hitachi DZGX5020A MiniDVD Camcorder and a Maxell Dvd-RW Mini Disc to record my video on. So after recording what do I need to do you use to get all my saved videos off the Disc without a usb cord? Is it best to have the disc in VR Mode or VF Mode? Please let me know as I'm running into a big problem.

Answer 1

If your computer has a drawer loading DVD drive, you can put the finalized disc (if you needed to do that) into the drive... You may need ISOBuster.

Then, rip the DVD with something like HandBrake.

This should get it to a format that MovieMaker (Windows) or iMovie (Macintosh) can deal with.

If you do not have a drawer loading DVD drive or the drive is for CD only, the only other way is to use the AV cables and an Analog/Digital bridge from Pinnacle (Dazzle - connects with USB) or any of the Canopus media conversion boxes (connects with firewire) made for analog conversion.
