Converting Analog Video to DV

If you have a DV camcorder or VCR that supports DV input via a 1394 connection, you can use the Hollywood DV-Bridge to convert analog video to DV without using a computer. To begin converting, make sure that the Hollywood DV-Bridge is powered up. Then follow the procedures below.

Connecting Analog Video Input

1.Connect an RCA (composite) video cable (yellow) or S-Video cable (black) to the Video Out connector on an analog camcorder, VCR, or TV.

S-Video provides higher quality video capture than composite video, and should be used if the analog device has an S-Video output.

Note: Some TVs do not have Video Out connectors. For specific details, check the doc- umentation included with your TV.

2.Connect the other end of the video cable to the corresponding Video In connector on the front of the Hollywood DV-Bridge.

Note: Some camcorders do not have connectors for standard video cables. If your camcorder is not compatible with standard video cables, use the cables that were included with the camcorder.
