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.)
