DV-PC Recorder is a software that enables you to record on the tape in the camcorder and on the
computer hard disk by connecting a camcorder equipped with the DV CONTROL function to a
computer using a IEEE1394 (DV) cable. This allows you to start editing the video on the computer
right after recording (optional editing software required).
