Capture from DV Camcorder
DV camcorders are popular among video hobbyists, as they
record in a digital format that does not require conversion before
being used on a computer, and often provide a number of
advanced recording options. You can capture a single scene or a
number of scenes in a batch from your camcorder. Procedures for
both methods are described below.
Capture a Single Scene
You can capture a single segment of video from your camcorder.
This function is particularly useful, for example, if you want to
acquire a long video segment in its entirety without skipping
over sections.
To capture a single scene from a DV camcorder, do this:
Note: Make sure your camcorder is in VRC mode before
capturing.
1. Click to open Capture mode.
2. Click to open the DV camcorder capture function. (You
may have to wait a few moments as PowerDirector switches
devices.)
