Transferring (capturing) from DV camcorders is best done by firewire. USB just isn't fast enough. Your cam should have a firewire port (perhaps called iLink) and many pc's have the card. If not, they are easy to install.

Thanks. I understand that firewire is faster. However, I purchased a relatively inexpensive USB DV (tape) camcorder. Even at the slower USB capture speed will VideoStudio 11.5 Plus support it or will I get failed capture error messages or similar? Thanks

Sorry if you this sounds like I am telling you off - I am not.
You can alter the title by using the Image button on your first post.

The purpose of providing a meaningful title is this.
There are a number of members on the forum who try and help troubleshoot problems - myself included. In the early days of the user forum it was not too difficult to be able to read all of the posts submitted since the last time I (or one of the other troubleshooters) had logged on.

On the Forum Home page at the top right is a link
view posts since last visit In the forums early days this would perhaps range between 10-30 posts. Today however the board has grown in popularity and more products are now catered for including the former Intervideo products before the merger with Ulead.

There have been days when I have logged on to find over 70 new posts since my last visit. It is of course impossible to read each and every one of them and so it is necessary to look at the titles to pick out posts where I feel I am able to offer some worthwhile input.

if you are viewing perhaps the VideoStudio forum and a post is entitled
"VideoStudio" - it doesn't really give you a clue, similarly in the PhotoImpact forum a post entitled [PhotoImpact] is equally as meaningless.

Giving a post a suitable title is a means of helping us to help you.

Can you tell us the exact make and model of your camera. The only DV cameras of which I am aware which have fast enough USB 2.0 connections for capturing DV are very much at the expensive end of the market...
