Hi,

Firstable thank you in advance for replying.

My question is, I was able to capture from my sony camera to my computer via Creator Basic V9 with analog cables, but out of nowhere I can't find the way to do it anymore.

I don't have the option of capturing Video.

Can someone Help me on this.

How did you do it before? What program/application?

You need an A/D converter or a Firewire. Some computers have a built in A/D converter (some Media Center).

What camcorder?

Did you upgrade to Creator 2009 or did you just post here witho9ut realizing that you posted in the Creator 2009 forum.

I have Roxio Creator V9. Isn't is the same as Roxio Creato 2009? If not I apologise.

Before on the same sofware (Roxio Media Import) I could pick the option Video, but now they don't let me do it. Only Photo and Sound.

Please answer the question if you expect help.

What kind of camcorder? Make/Model? What capture device? How are you connected to PC?

No, it isn't the same. The 2009 should have tipped you off that it wasn't the same software. It is 2 versions behind the 2009 version, which came out a month or so, ago.

EMC 9 came out in late 2006.

No. It's not. It's very confusing, but there's an Easy Media Creator 9 which is this forum and an Roxio Creator 2009 which is a brand new program.

So since you've done this before, I'm guessing you're in the correct forum.

What are you connecting your analog cables to on your computer? If it's a capture card, perhaps you used a program that came with the card to capture the video?

If not, you need to tell us a bit more information about your computer.

I think that camcorder has an IEEE 1394 (firewire) connection and that's the connection that you need to connect to the computer for capture.

[romano75018]

What that mean? IEEE 1394 (firewire)

THanks.

One more thing I think you should know is before i could pick the option Video, Now no. Only photo and sound.

Google it (IEEE1394).

Thanks

I do have it but then if I do it this I will not get the time stamp from the Video as I was able to do with the analog cables.

If you connect, via firewire, you can use a WinDV, a free software, to capture. It will retain the time/date stamp, and you can then use the captured videos in the Roxio software.

Thanks a lot for the help

I download WinDV but the Time Stamp doesnt show on the Video Itself. Is there a way to do i tthen?

None of the Roxio prgrams will show the date/time stamp and as far as I know never did. You will need a 3rd party program to do this.

Analog tapes usually have the time stamp imprinted on the video tape.

Digital video has a time code that isn't on the video tape the same way that it is on analog tape and as Walt said, you need another program to do that task.

Here is one program that I use to put the date/time on the "digital" captured video. There are several others on the market maybe even some freeware. Just do a google search for "video date time stamp"
