My video 8 to pc gadget doesn't work?

Question

i just bought Kworld usb2.0 dvd maker hoping to transfer my video 8 tapes to my personal computer. I alrdy installed all the softawres that came with it. When i plug the usb in my computer, the latter recognises that a hardware is attached but the handycam won't appear anywhere. I'm facing a brick wall, what can i do?

Answer 1

Your PC will only see the KWorld converter - the camcorder doesn't have a direct connection with it.  There seem to be a number of different apps supplied with that converter, none of them very good!  Windows Movie Maker should see the converter as a capture device when you go to Capture Video, but you'll need to control the camcorder manually, i.e. set it to play.

Answer 2

Open the video editing program and capture the video.
