I was just wondering how to put my videos from my video camera onto my pc. i know that i can use a firewire cable, but my computer doesn't have a port for that. Do you know if there is any other way to do it? Can it be done with a USB cable? Is there a USB cable with the same type of end as a firewire cable? Thanks so much!
Just asked my hubby. Does the camera definitely have firewire? If it does you can buy a firewire PCI expansion card which will give your PC firewire ports. This would involve taking the case off the base unit. The alternative is a USB box that accepts regular AV cables, similar to the connections ou yout TV. Go to PC World website and do a search for PSY 017. This is the USB connection. Hope this means more to you than it does to me!
search for psy 017 didn't bring up anything useful. Anyone else have any ideas on what I can do? Or where else I can find the USB box? I wouldn't mind putting the port in the computer, but I'd have to have someone else do it. I'm not THAT savvy when it comes to computers. Don't really want to spend an arm and a leg on it, but I guess I gotta do what I gotta do. I just want to put video on my blog site. Anyway...thanks if you have any other info for me.
