*registered with email = sales@embeddedrf.com


Turn on your camcorder and switch it to Play/Edit mode and make sure that your Sony HDV camcorder is switched to HDV mode.
== Hardware Required ==


To check that your Sony HDV camcorder is set to HDV mode, flip open the LCD screen and see if HDVout I-Link is on the LCD screen. If you see DVout I-Link, press P-MENU at the lower-right of the LCD screen. In the menu, press MENU > STANDARD SET > VCR HDV/DV and press HDV.
*Computer with LARGE disk drive
 
*IEEE-1394 port
Open VideoStudio and click Capture on the Step Panel. In the Options Panel, click Capture Video.
*IEEE-1394 cable ( ILink Cable ? )
 
*ULead VideoStudio 11 ?
VideoStudio automatically detects your Sony HDV camcorder. The Source should show Sony -- HDV. If you see Sony -- MSDV in Source, you are not capturing HDV video. Please see Troubleshooting.
 
 
 
Note: When capturing HDV, Split by Scene and DV Quick Scan are not supported.
 
Use the Navigation Panel to go to the start of the section of the video where you want to capture and click Capture Video.
Tip: The Sony HDR-HC1 HDV camcorder has a built-in function that lets you downsample HDV video to DV video. To downsample the HDV video to DV video when capturing into VideoStudio, flip open the LCD panel and press P-MENU. In the menu, press MENU > STANDARD SET > I.LINK CONV > ON HDV-->DV.
 
 
 
 
Step 2: Editing your HDV video
After capturing your HDV video, use the powerful editing tools available inside VideoStudio to edit your HDV video. To learn how to edit your HDV video in VideoStudio, refer to the manual and the online help. You can also go to our web site at and check out helpful tutorials to help you create your movies in VideoStudio.
 
 
 
 
Step 3: Sharing your HDV video
After editing your video, share your HDV movie.
 
In the Step Panel, click Share.
 
In the Options Panel, choose either to Create Video File so you can play back in your computer or Create Disc to burn your movie to a DVD so you can play it back on a DVD player. Please refer to the manual and online help to learn how to create a video file or to create a disc.
Tip: When creating a video file and the first clip on the Timeline is an HDV video, click Create Video File > Same as First Video Clip. This ensures that you retain the HDV properties when you create the video file.
 
Troubleshooting
 
If you are having problems with capturing HDV video into VideoStudio, check the following:
 
If you have connected your Sony HDV camcorder before to your computer, check the Device Manager to see if your camcorder is detected as a DV device (left image below) or AV/C tape device (right image below). If the camcorder is detected as a DV device, you can capture DV footage using VideoStudio. If the camcorder is detected as an AV/C tape device, you can capture HDV footage.
 
To check if the proper capture plug-in and device control are being used, click Tools: Change Capture Plug-in/Select Device Control. The capture plug-in should be Ulead HDV Capture Plug-in.
 
The Sony HDV camcorder can only be detected under Windows® XP Service Pack 2.
