Capturing from an HDV Camcorder
You can capture video footage you shot with an HDV* camcorder. Use the capture
from an HDV camcorder option only if your camcorder connects to your computer
using an IEEE 1394 (FireWire) cable. To a capture scene from your HDV camcorder,
use the capture player controls (record, stop, fast forward, rewind, etc.) underneath
the capture preview window.
If your HDV camcorder connects to your computer via a USB connection, just
import the video files directly from your camcorder, as if it was another hard drive
on your computer. See Importing Media for information on importing video files
from your computer.
