I have a samsung handicam use tape recorder.How i want to get a usb port to connect the handicam to the pc?

Answer 1

If the camcorder's a MiniDV model you need to transfer the video via firewire, not USB.  If your PC hasn't already got one you'll need to install a firewire card.  They're cheap, easy to install and readily available.  You'll also need a firewire cable.

Answer 2

Oh ..does the camera have a USB port ??? ... if not its not easy to get a port on the camera ... may be try some external drvies which plays the casette and can be connected to the PC.
