Answer 1

JVC VC-VDV206U Audio Video Cable

JVC offers this DV cable to connect a Digital Camcorder to a computer. It interfaces the 4-pin DV connector on your camcorder with the 6-pin DV connector on the PC.... more

Answer 2

so... I hope you don't have the USB cable and the firewire cable plugged into your computer at the same time. That can break things.

With the firewire cable plugged into the DV port of the camcorder and the firewire port of the computer and the camcorder is in Play mode (and plugged into the wall AC power with the power adapter), are you saying that when you launch MovieMaker and "Capture", the video camera is not recognized?

There are only two conditions that can cause this:

1) The firewire400 port on the computer is not working properly (how do you know it is working?). If you are using Vista Home Basic, chances are good that the IEEE1394a  firewire port drivers were never loaded... so, that will be your first step. Get that port working and you'll be ready to go.

2) The DV port on the camcorder is not working properly. This could be for several reasons, but lets hope the DV port was not fried if you ever had the USB and firewire connections to your computer at the same time... Reset the camcorder to factory defaults by disconnecting all cables, removing the rechargeable battery and removing the little date/time button battery inside the camcorder. Wait for about 20 minutes. Put the button battery back in, then put the rechargeable battery back on. Set the date and time. Connect the firewire cable to the DV port, connect the AC power adapter to the wall, connect the other side of the firewire cable to the firewire port on the computer, launch MovieMaker - will it "Capture" from the video tape?

Anyone you know nearby with an Apple Macintosh and iMovieHD? You will need a 4-pin to 6-pin firewire cable and the AC power adapter. If it works with the Mac, we know it is not the camcorder's DV port. If it does not work, chances are good the camcorder's firewire port is bad.

Answer 4

iirc.. Sounds like u have the camcorder set to transfer only the SD card data..

Go through the camcorders menus from a-Z and you will find it..

If not that.. you should find instructions on whatever software you are using to capure the recorded data.. Windows moviemaker is what I use.. I rig up my VC press play on the camcorder and start recording the playback by clicking record on the Moviemaker program, its very simple..
