Connecting a digital video camera recorder
To connect a digital video camera recorder, proceed as follows:
1
Plug one end of the i.LINK™ cable (not supplied) into the i.LINK™ port of the computer and the other
end into the DV-Out port on your digital video camera recorder.
2
Launch the DVgate application (see your
Software Guide
for more information).
✍
On Sony digital video cameras, ports labelled
DV Out
,
DV In/Out
or
i.LINK
are i.LINK™-compatible.
The Sony digital video camera recorder is an example; your digital video camera recorder may need to be connected differently.
If your digital video camera recorder includes a Memory Stick™ slot, you canuse it to copy images from the camera to your computer. To do so, simply
copy images on the Memory Stick™, and then insert it into the Memory Stick™ slot of your computer; just like using a floppy disk, for example.
