Jim_Hardin Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 If the camcorder has a Firewire connection to your PC, then the answer is Yes and Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gi7omy Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 A caveat - yes to the second (EMC7) PROVIDED you do NOT have either IE7 or WMP11 on your computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I have tried to capture longer lengths (no pass through, just using av cables into my pc) I have had audio /video sync issues crop up.

justanewby Posted November 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I now realize after reading my own post it was a little confusing (sorry guys) gi7omy has the answer I was looking for. (EMC7 no good with Vista) I'll be good to go with Creator2009? (Capter video from vcr to pass thru sonny mini dv to computer) Again thanks There's lots of good info on this board, you guys are the best. Seeing as all the trouble I was having with EMC7 I now have Creator 2009 bought it today. Guess I'll be checking back with some other dum question.

Old but learning here You had no problems with EMC 7. Your problem was with Microsoft, screwing up EMC 7. I hope that you have good luck with Creator 2009.

justanewby Posted November 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 A caveat - yes to the second (EMC7) PROVIDED you do NOT have either IE7 or WMP11 on your computer I just got a new Dell Inspiron530 with Vista so I will try to figure it out and see what I have. I do use a firewire---camera to computer IE7 and WMP11 not sure about either one just an old guy trying to learn thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gi7omy Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 If you have Vista then you have both WMP11 and IE7 so it's no to EMC 7 - sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bimicher Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 If you have Vista then you have both WMP11 and IE7 so it's no to EMC 7 - sorry I think <justanewby> had a typo ( "I now have EMC7 can I do the same thing in EMC7") in the original post and maybe he really meant "I now have EMC7 can I do the same thing in C2009". He seems to indicate that he was able to capture with EMC 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
