Panasonic NV-GS - Cant capture the video in my PC | |||
|
Hi, we bought a Video Camea last year, its a Panasonic NV-GS 50. When installed the drivers, I captured the photos that we recorded on th card and I didn't have any problems. Now I'm trying to capture a vide from my panasonic camera to windows movie maker (the camera is connecte to my computer via a USB cable), the video is saved on tape and I can' see it. I mean I can see it directly from the video camera, its there but I can't see it from my PC. The only thing that I can see via P are the photos saved in the card. Unfortunally I can't find the cd- with the drivers so I don't know if I missed something when I did th installation last year or what.... can anybody help please?? Nine -- nineu . |

Hi USB is designed for the photo's. What you need to use is firewire (IEEE1394 - dv) for capturing the movie from the tape. See here for more help on firewire and how to see if you already have it on your pc, http://www.myvideoproblems.com/WebPages/UsefulInformation.htm#Firewire http://www.myvideoproblems.com/ProblemPages/CannotCapture.htm Graham -- Graham Hughes MVP Digital Media www.myvideoproblems.co.uk www.dvds2treasure.com www.simplydv.com "nineu" <nineu.1x3cu3 (~=~) pcbanter.net> wrote in message news:nineu.1x3cu3 (~=~) pcbanter.net... > > Hi, we bought a Video Camea last year, its a Panasonic NV-GS 50.

Hi, We (my wife and I) have recently bought a Panasonic GS-35 so my experience may help you. You a quite correct that you can only get the still pictures on the card when using the PC setting on the video camera. For video download, you need the program Panasonic MotionDV STUDIO LE for DV which should have been supplied on a CD with the video camera. On my PC it installed as "C:\Program Files\Panasonic\MotionDV STUDIO LE for DV\MotionDVSTUDIO.exe". The entire installation on this folder is about 100MB. To use the program to download the video, set the camera to video replay, position at the beginning of the tape, connect via USB2 and start the program. Use Editing Assistant which will guide you through the steps. The program creates files in .avi format. For 60 minutes of tape, you need approx. 13.3 GB (18 minutes ~= 4GB). You will then need to output the file in MPEG1 format, an operation that takes about 8-9 hours for 60 minutes. (Unless of course you are willing to work with the .avi format - I am told it is better, but uses a lot of disk space.) Note that firewire is *not* needed for this operation, although it may work better. (This is something I cannot test, since I don't have it.) I read this advice and was dismayed to think I would have to invest in another card, etc, on the PC. However, USB2 certainly works quite O.K. with MotionDV STUDIO. I don't know what to suggest if you can't find the program on C:\Program Files\Panasonic\ and you can't find the CD. Perhaps check with your dealer and/or the Panasonic Website (www.panasonic.com in North America). I just had a quick look at this site and unfortunately I can't find anything about software downloads. Good luck and hope it goes O.K., Trevor L.

You will find that USB 2.0 is not as fast as firewire in the real world and you will end up with plenty of dropped frames if you use that rather than USB. -- Cari (MS-MVP) Printing & Imaging "Trevor L." <tandcl (~=~) homemail.com.au> wrote in message news:%23TrHlZ%230FHA.3000 (~=~) TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... > Hi, > > We (my wife and I) have recently bought a Panasonic GS-35 so my experience > may help you. > > You a quite correct that you can only get the still pictures on the card > when using the PC setting on the video camera. > > For video download, you need the program Panasonic MotionDV STUDIO LE for > DV which should have been supplied on a CD with the video camera.

Cari, Do you mean "you will end up with plenty of dropped frames if you use that (USB2.0) rather than *firewire*." If so, I will definitely get a firewire card. Just not sure how I would use it with MotionDV STUDIO. I suppose it a case of "suck it and see" - don't know whether that is an Aussie expression or not . -- Cheers, Trevor L.

Hi, thanks to all of you for your replies. I will try them asap. About the Panasonic MotionDV program, unfortunatelly I can't find the CD-s that we get with the camera. I checked also the Panasonic web page but I can't find any driver downloads... you can get the "Titles" but nothing else.... if anybody knows where to download the drivers PLEASE let me know. Last year we installed the camera drivers in my sister's pc and now that we've got our PC we'd like to use this one. Thanks a lot. Nineu Trevor L.

Often usb and the manufacturers programmes work by capturing in a lower quality format than dv-avi? What do you capture as Trevor? Firewire is almost universal, so motiondv - with the dv standing for digital video - should just pick up the cam straight away. -- Graham Hughes MVP Digital Media www.myvideoproblems.co.uk www.dvds2treasure.com www.simplydv.com "Trevor L." <tandcl (~=~) homemail.com.au> wrote in message news:uzGZhKF1FHA.3524 (~=~) tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... > Cari, > > Do you mean "you will end up with plenty of dropped frames if you use > that (USB2.0) rather than *firewire*." > > If so, I will definitely get a firewire card.

Thanks Graham, I capture in .avi. It is about 4Gb per 18 minutes, so I think this is probably the highest quality. I don't understand the reference to motiondv. I know I have a DV connection on the camera. So I suppose if I install a firewire card, I use a cable from the DV connection on the camera to the firewire port. But what will the Panasonic program do? Are you saying it will pick up the camera, or will Windows XP do that? -- Cheers, Trevor L.
