NOTES:

If you are using a Windows® PC, you can use a DV cable instead of a USB cable to capture video. In this case, click the Digital video camera input (1394) button in step 4 on page 32. For more details, refer to the online help. ( pg. 29)

To copy a video as a still image, click the Still image button in step 1 of “Copying video” and perform steps 2 4.

It is not possible to capture video keeping DV format. Use other DV capture application software available.

If you capture video from a tape via an optional DV cable, noise may appear depending on the type or the performance of the hardware. In this case, use the USB cable.
