Capturing video from a digital video camera

You can use muvee autoProducer to capture (copy) digital video files to the hard disk drive in either of the following ways:

￿Live (known as camera mode), by using a compatible digital video (DV) camera. See “Capturing live video from a DV camera.”

￿Recorded (known as VCR mode), by using a recorded tape in the DV camera. See “Capturing recorded video from a DV camera.”

Captured video files are automatically added to the movie project. To remove a file from the movie project, select it in the list of captured video files, and then click the trash can icon.

When capturing video, it is important to be aware of the amount of available free space on the computer hard disk drive. Capturing video can use a large amount of disk space. The amount of free disk space displays in the Capture Video window while you are capturing video.
