Connecting a digital video camera recorder

To connect a digital video camera recorder, proceed as follows:

1Plug one end of the i.LINK™ cable (not supplied) into the i.LINK™ connector of the computer and the other end into the DV-Out connector on your digital video camera recorder.

2Launch the DVgate application. (See your Software Guide for more information.)

✍On Sony digital video cameras, connectors labelled DV Out, DV In/Out or i.LINK™ are i.LINK™-compatible.

The Sony digital video camera recorder is an example; your digital video camera recorder may need to be connected differently.

If your digital video camera recorder includes a Memory Stick™ slot, you can copy images from it to your computer via a Memory Stick™. To do so, simply copy images on the Memory Stick™, and then insert it into the Memory Stick™ slot of your computer.
