| | Whats replacing the Sony TRV33? by
Benny
I'm after my first miniDV camcorder, and its seems everybody recommends the
Sony TRV33 for my budget (about the £500 mark).
Looking on Jessops and a few other websites it looks like this has been
replaced by a 2004 model. Can anyone tell me which is the equivalent in the
new range?
I know I can still get the TRV33 online, but I thought I should look at the
new version first...unless anyone...

When you require your camera to act as a recorder, accepting
data through the FireWire port, you will be running a program
capable of sending this data. This program will send the signal
that starts your camera recording.
It's difficult to imagine why you would WANT to instigate
recording unless connected to such a program :-)

Dan_E
Hi
Can anybody offer any thoughts or advice in this....
I want to record a presentation at work and getting the right sound quality
is important but the video recorder we have has only an internal
microphone.
It has been suggested that we could buy a minidisk player and a microphone
to be placed near the speakers which would record the sound independently

| | Premiere Pro and Encore by
Tom
Hi guys,
Using Prem Pro, I've worked out that encoding to MPEG is of far better
quality then doing it to AVI first, certainly if the use of stills is
involved...
....when encoded to AVI, the stills look dreadful, compared with erfect
quality from MPEG2.
Any ideas why this is?

| | Rendering as DV? by
Compressionist
Once you have imported your footage from DV Tape then edited it when
rendering to The DV format is there any data loss or is it a straight
copy with or without added efects etc.
if so what do you recomend using Composite video?
Basical will i loose any quality if i render to DV from a DV source

| | Recommendation needed for replacement battery purchase by
Steve
My camcorder battery has died. The camcorder is a JVC GR DVL-108 the
battery is a BN-V408U (7.2V 800mA).
Can anyone suggest a reputable, reasonably priced dealer on the net
for the purchase of a battery?
Is it worth considering batteries made by third-party manufacturers or
should I stick to a JVC-made one? Are there any risks to my camcorder
by using a non-JVC made battery?

Jerry.
Anyone using a Abit IC7-MAX3 board with a Matrox RT.X100 card or do you know
of any issues between the two ? The Intel 875P chipset is approved (and is
used on the ASUS P4C800 Deluxe board that is listed as tested and approved
on the Matrox site) so I would assume that the IC7-MAX3 board is OK ?
Comments anyone...

I'm currently using a Belkin USB phono capture jobby with videowave5
(bundled in with hardware). Problem is after 10mins the software says
it has run out of space...
The drive has roughly 10gb free, and I'm using the rgb555(?) encoding
with radio quality audio (to avi). After each scene I was going to
encode to mpeg...
So, my questions are these:

| | Low light on Canon digital camcorders... that bad? by
TrueBlue
I am looking at upgrading my camcorder and quite like the new canon MV730i
(replaces the MV630i). I have seen reviews complaining of poor low light
performance. Is it really that bad?
It will be a family camcorder for me and the only 'low light' situations I
will use it in is inside the house in the evening with the lights on. My old
Sony (analogue) went a bit grainy in these conditions. What...
