Hello, I am having an issue with my IDE Hard Drives staying in DMA mode. I have the option in the drop down box to set them in DMA, but only "PIO Mode" displays in the Current Transfer Mode window. I have the original 30GB Drive and a new additional 160GB 7200rpm Western Digital drive. I've seen advice saying to delete the drives from Device Manager, but I am uncertain on how to do that, and...

I've just upgraded my PC to a Dell XPS M1710 notebook which I'm using with external USB2 hard drives. Unfortunately, I seem to have misplaced my Epson R200 software disk. I really would appreciate it if someone could help me out - I know a good few people have this printer for printing direct on to CDs/DVDs. If anyone can help me out, can you please upload the disk contents to the alt.260...

what software is available to record movies, clips, homevideos, etc and store them so i can share with friends and family across the internet?

"Anne R" wrote in message ... I'm in the UK and am looking for a secret camcorder similar to what they probably use in TV documentaries. I'm getting really messed up by a doctor (NHS hospital doc) and I want to record the stuff I have to go through in consultations as proof for a complaint. The consultations are only discussion and...

I have stored computer data on four dvd+r discs. They all seem to have failed,that is one is not even recognized as a disc by the computer, and half the files have gone missing from the others. They have scratches on them. The free versions of cdroller and isobuster will not recover the lost files. Is there anyway I can access these files again?. I cannot believe they have all physically...

Hi. I am having trouble trying to capture video from my MiniDV camcorder to my computer. I am connecting it via the DV out to my computer. I have tried going into Nero using the option to make a movie, and then to capture from an external device plugged into the computer. When the screen comes up though the only thing that seems to be viewable is the TV Tuner. How do I get the camcorder to...

I downloaded a trial version of Adobe premiere elements 2.0. How can I have ONE single menu....and on it buttons for photo slides.? Their templetes have a main menu and automatically gives you a submenu for scenes, it's very complicated program. Simple to use a Sonic MyDVD, Pinnacle ,Ulead DVDworkshop, I have read their tutorial and seen their forums.Nothig there I think I have wasted my...

I have managed to import some of my video from MiniDV via the DV out. I am using Nero and am in the movie making section. I have added the video and also music no problems. I just wonder if it is possible to add a picture to the movie though? So for example I could import a picture from My Pictures folder on my computer and have it so that picture was displayed for 4 or 5 seconds? Does anyone...

All optimistic like, I've just upgraded to a fast PC running Win XP and fully expected my retail version of VideoStudio 9 to recognise and provide me with the Auto Music facility. Well it did sort of, by dialling the internet and downloading short samples of what's on offer at a significant price for the full track. (No configurable free tracks whatsoever, despite what the manual...

Help. Just had a problem start with my camcorder. When I turn it on I now (sometimes) dont get an image in either the viewfinder or repeat screen although I get the canon bootup logo displayed on the screen and nothing is recorded to tape but audio. Any ideas? Could it be a loose connection thats easy to fix inside the body or do I need to send it to a canon service centre?

I have some .3gp format video clips from my mobile phone that I want to convert to .avi or .mpg and out on my website. Can anybody recommend a good program that can do this? Searching on Google brings up a few possibilities, but I would like to know from somebody that has used one of these. Cheers ss.

Just in case others fall into the same problem, and waste time on it. (Ulead VideoStudio 9, Win98SE, 1GB RAM, large HDDs etc. ...and stable.) I've been uploading video from my Sony MiniDV camcorders over several years without a problem, until fairly recently, when although the camcorder's screen indicated that it had recognised the FireWire connection correctly ("DV IN" shown on screen), my...

My son has a Canon MV600 camcorder which worked perfectly until he went off on a 6 month trip. Since coming back, he has found it sometimes powers up normally in camera mode but sometimes shows only a black screen (in the LCD and viewfinder). So far it has behaved normally in playback mode. I've been testing it out for the last few days and had a similar experience though occasionally it...

I hope someone can help me on here, as I can't seem to find good information on any of this on the web. I will be going on a trip around the world at the end of October and am looking to buy a camcorder to record this once in a lifetime experience. As far as the camcorder is concerned, I will be doing a lot of indoor/low light recording with loud(ish) music (I will be attending some music...

I'm asking this on behalf of a friend who doesn't have internet access, so please excuse any vagueness. My friend has a Sony DVD camcorder (don't know which model) and he reckons that when he puts in a blank Sony DVD disc, the camcorder automatically formats the disc. He then shoots what he wants to and can take the disc from the camcorder and play it directly on his DVD player and watch the...

Capture from two or more camcorders with perfect synchronization even if they are attached to different computers in different locations! To see an example, watch this video: http://www.enosoft.net/products/enodvproc/RemoteDV.wmv (about 2MB) The software is available for free (during the beta testing phase) at: http://www.enosoft.net/dl.php?filename=EnosoftDVProcessorSetup.msi (Windows XP...

I'm currently working on a project editing together live and archive footage for editing in Premiere. (which has been converted from VOB(VTS) to AVI using AVS Video Converter). I can view the converted clip but as soon as I place it on the timeline and preview all I get in the monitor window is black screen. Any suggestions?

I have a camcorder with both firewire and SVHS outputs and a current laptop (HP Compaq NX6125) with both firewire and SVHS inputs. How can I use my laptop as a monitor to preview the video I have recorded? I can capture video with Windows Movie Maker but I don't want to do that - I use Canopus software for recording on my desktop machine when I get home. In any case, the view screen when...

I have this DV camera connected to my pc via firewire and was wondering if anyone knows how to enable it to be used as a webcam. I believe this is possible as it was listed as a function when I bought the camera from Comet but I can't seem to find any info on how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, i have a dcr pc110e and want to transfer the images and video off it onto my laptop (it is a toshiba and has windows xp). anyone know what stuff i will need? cheers
