Camcorders: Camcorder tape onto DVD
Camcorder tape onto DVD
by Karthiha - 5/18/08 11:33 AMI have a camcorder with the small casettes - I want to transfer the footage onto DVD and label each section - for e.g. John's Christening, John's 1st birthday, etc and then be able to play it on TV - what is the best software for doing this? I am not a computer expert so the easier the better - I have a Panasonic camcorder Any advise is REALLY appreciated..

Go get an Apple, connect up the firewire and you'll be done in no time.

Not really a very helpful answer...............
Sorry, forgot to note you'll want Final Cut Pro.

It's the best according to some. Does that help?
Need more information.

Case in point: I had a Compaq with a 2.7 GHz processor and 1 Gig of RAM. It was good for about 3 minute bursts of recording onto the computer. Anything longer, and the recording would begin to hiccup. (no worries as the 3 minutes clips can be spliced together).
I upgraded to an HP Multimedia computer w/ 2 Gigs of RAM, and a 2.61 Ghz Dual Core processor. Video transfers from my Sony Digital Camcorder are now seamless with no hiccups.

by ALJAK - 5/24/08 3:45 AM In reply to: Camcorder tape onto DVD by KarthihaI use a firewire card to transfer video to my computer and then edit with pinnacle software and then save to file and then send to dvd disc using Sonic MyDVD software as you title each clip separately as you have said you would like to.You lose a few mg when you split each clip and title separately but it allows you to when watching to cut straight to the one you want to watch without watching the whole dvd.
A VERY GOOD PROGRAM
