Capturing from a DV Camcorder
You can capture video content that you recorded with a DV camcorder. Use the
capture from a DV camcorder option only if your camcorder connects to your
computer using an IEEE 1394 (FireWire) cable. You can capture a single scene or a
number of scenes in a batch from your camcorder.
Note: to add a text remark, date, or timecode to the video you are capturing, click
on the button in capture preferences area to enable it. See Capture
Preferences for more information.
