    Question Need help uploading mini DV vids to pc in Mcdonough area!

    I now realize I am one of those who is doomed with uploading vids to a pc from a mini DV camera

    I have tried a new mini DV camera and a friends new laptop. I have tried both USB and firewire with no response from 2 cameras, 2 laptops, and 2 cables......

    I have researched the issue and there are a lot of people having the same problem. There doesn't seem to be an easy fix as usually trial and error (as I have done), disabling/enabling the drive, opening software to read the camera are suggestions. I have tried it all the past 5 days and now I give up.

    Anyone in the Mcdonough area that is able to upload Mini DV to a hard drive via firewire and can help me I'd really appreciate it.

    I just need the video uploaded and then I will edit the races on my pc. Thanks for any help you can offer

    The car in the vids:

    Wait, what video cameras are easiest to upload to a computer?

    I thought mini DV was? I am getting a video camera for Christmas and want one that easily can be uploaded then edited on a computer.

    LOLOL!!!!! There are no drivers necessary for video downloads, genius. I swear IA should make a section called FAILURES AND INADEQUATES. That way, you'd have your very own topic on something you actually specialize in. Later, QD.

    IS YOUR computer even detecting the camera?

    Try turning on the camera and then plugging in the fire wire into the camera and then into the computer

    what brand of camera is it? because some actually require you to go to the menu and sset it to transfer, basically activating the port in the camera before it'll pick up.

    What editing program are you using? Usually you will have to change a setting in there to recognize your deck.

    I spoke with JVC / looked at the manual. You just have to set the camera to "play" to upload to the pc.

    Both mini dv cameras are JVC

    Was going to use Windows Movie Maker, but it doesn't racognize the camera neither.

    4) I'll rep you later

    Dude i dont care. im backin up the guy who needs to get his fuknn vids uploaded....if he doesnt like it or doesnt want to help him...why does he have to jump in and ruin ppls day by sayin something stupid. I guess u guys who posted right before me are hardcore fans of QD? But I'm not. I have plenty of ppl who dont like this guy either...but i thought that wasnt my problem until i started reading some of this guys posts. He is a post whore...and all he will do now is come back with a stupid ass comment/post that ends with Later, QD. I really dont care if a noob in this website espeically when i need to say something that has to be said. by the way thats my longest post proves to show that i am a noob..and i dont care for the numbers on top.
