My MiniDV camera does not capture correctly

Post by rjs916 »

In the DV-to-DVD Wizard, whenever I click on "Start Scan" I could see the time of my tape moving forward, but I do not see a preview video of what is being captured. It says "DV In" on my MiniDV, as the firewire is properly connected, but a video file is never captured, even though it is connected. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

AFAIK, 'Start Scan' is the first step as to where the program would scan the tape for scene changes. When it's done, it should rewind back and then start to capture.

Did you let it finish ?

su_A_ve, I "Start Scan"ned not from the beginning of the tape but from the current position. There is no video capture when I started a scan right at the current point in the MiniDV tape.
