Is it any good for HD video? I've found surprisingly little info on this topic.</p> <p> </p> <p>Happy Editing, </p> <p>Andrew</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/i-only-have-usb-am-i-screwed#post-65859 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 11:37:29 +0000 ThomW 65859@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> every product for converting analog (VHS) to a digital format seems to have an output via FireWire to the input of my computer.  But as I'm finding out not all PC's have a FireWire port.  What now?  Is there a USB solution or how else does one get there old home movies onto the computer that is not equiped with FireWire.  For now, my friend has to bring his crap over to use my computer where then I have to share so that he can get it onto his computer.  </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hd-writer-ae-15-usb-problem#post-65705 Sat, 19 Feb 2011 15:17:26 +0000 Snowbirds123 65705@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Good evening,</p> <p>I'm having a bit of problems with HD Writer 1.5, the program provided with my HDC-SD10 camcorder.</p> <p>Each time I connect my camcorded to my PC (via the provided USB wire) and start downloading my recorded videos on my hard drive, an error pops up. It tells me that my USB connection is unstable and that I should try to connect my camcorder to a USB port at the rear of my computer.</p> <p>I installed the update from Panasonic but the problem still occurs. I tried connecting the camcorder to every single USB port of my computer and it doesn't change anything. The download progress goes up to 3% and it stops and notifies me of the error.</p> <p>Thanks in advance,</p> <p>Snowbirds123</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/usb-20-vs-firewire#post-65388 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 08:25:10 +0000 nevart 65388@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm a little nervous about trusting a USB2.0 transfer.  I suspect it is going to drop frames, glitch, or get the audio out of sync, or some other annoying thing.  But since I don't really know what I am talking about, over to you guys....  which do you think is best and why?  And am I really going to suffer if I use a USB input?</p> <p>Reason for question: Getting harder to find devices that are not cameras that have Firewire output</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/can-the-tm700-be-used-as-a-webcam#post-64632 Wed, 05 Jan 2011 23:13:43 +0000 Phillip 64632@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm considering purchasing a TM700, and I'd like to be able to use it as a webcam.</p> <p>As far as I can tell from the specs, the TM700 has a USB port but no FireWire port. In a videomaker article on choosing a WebCam, it says if you have a FireWire port you're good to go. But no mention is made of USB ports.</p> <p>Can you run this camera as a WebCam over a USB connection?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/uploading-dv-to-computer#post-53570 Tue, 29 Dec 2009 18:43:00 +0000 maryalberts 53570@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>My new computer does not have a firewire port, I have a Sony camcorder DCR-HC32. Is there a way to upload and edit my DV tapes from my camcorder? Can I use a firewire to USB cable? I have a USB 2.0 port, will that be just as good?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/whats-a-good-entry-level-usb-mic-for-video-tours#post-38827 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 06:47:24 +0000 pensacolabeach4sale 38827@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm just starting to do my own video tours and not sure what is a good mic for voice overs during the tour.  I'm using video studio 10 for my editing and need just an entry level mic for the voice over that won't break the bank.  Thanks for the help.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/suggestions#post-36902 Tue, 27 May 2008 18:09:40 +0000 mrjman 36902@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Ok... I'm going to buy my own equiptment over the summer and I wanted some suggestions on what I should do. I'm not sure which ones better but my options are Get a mini dv tape camcorder, Get a hard drive USB 2.0 camcorder, or get a miniDVD disc camcorder. Any suggestions on which one to shoot for just let me know.</p> <p>by the way, I have a Windows XP with firewire and USB and I have the editing software Sony Vegas.</p>
