Hello Folks,,

Just wondering if I have the necessary tools to get video onto the computer and then the net.

Dell computer 2400 pentium 4, 2.66 ghz, 256 mb ram.

Got a JVC digital camcorder, GR-D770.

The camera uses those small cassettes and has connections for the computer, USB 2.0 and DV. The manual says that still pics can be transferred via the USB cable. Says that still and moving pics can be transferred via the DV cable.

My computer does not appear to have a DV connection. Is there an adapter out there? Or, am I stuck with having to get another computer or graphic card?

Thanks ahead,,,

Steve

This might do the trick. Check the system requirements carefully.

Mark,

Thanks for the link. It is just what I need. Unfortunately, $120 is not a viable option.

Thanks again for the effort,,,

Steve
