How do you copy from a mini disc handycam onto a pc?
The model handycam i have got does not have a usb. I know i can record to a vhs or a dvd recorder, but where do you connect those red, white and yellow leads into a pc?

Your handycam should have a Digital Video (DV) out, sometimes known as a firewire or a IEEE 1394. (This connection is a lot faster than a USB anyway). Then if your PC dosent have the above connection, you will then have to fit a card in it, very easy, you can buy them from Amazon = http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h_/202-7 684498-4947066?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-ke ywords=firewire+card&Go.x=8&Go.y=6
