pic of my brothers camcorder.

one more questoin.the jve camcorder i have has a s-video out put.i was told i could get the s-video cable and it will hook up to my computer.is this true??

It will if your computer has an S-Video IN

Does your computer have a Firewire input?

USB?

i just looked and i dont have an s-video in and im not sure what a firewire input is.usb,yes .heres 2 pics of the back of my computer.

Their are many layers to your delima. One, what software are you planning on using. The software will dictate how it accepts input of the video, speed, quality, etc. Overall, a SVideo cable is going to be alot cheaper and will work with mose software, but the software will determine if it is going to use an SVideo card or not, then worry about the hardware.

This looks like an old computer, what are the specs?

lol.i just got a canon dc100 so im all set now,i just need to buy a charger for it after x-mas.i cant remember the specs on my pc,my brother built it 4 years ago lol.

the Pc is going to hang you up a little, but at least you got the Canon!!

I have edited on this kind of computer programs up to an hour in length. So it can be done. The key is analog input. S-Vhs is an analog signal. You need a way to convert to digital. Once you have transfered the analog signal to your computers hard drive you will need some kind of editing program to whip it into shape. Windows XP has a decent cheap editor built in. There is also some programs that convert analog into DVD but you need some hardware or a card to make that change.
