wyantm06 Posted January 20, 2007 Author CID Share Posted January 20, 2007 Do you know if it has either a usb or firewire connection? I don't see any...Plus if there was I would already know how to do it, and I wouldn't be asking.

haddikazook Posted January 20, 2007 CID Share Posted January 20, 2007 No need to get testy, I have no way of knowing your level of technical expertise unless you tell me, and some people wouldn't even know to check. In that case, you can get a video/tv card for your computer for around 20$ U.S. from Tiger Direct or a similar site.

dlewis23 Posted January 21, 2007 CID Share Posted January 21, 2007 So the firewire actually has a use?? firewire has many uses, it is actually far better then USB.

tommie gorman Posted January 21, 2007 CID Share Posted January 21, 2007 Then why is it in so little use? Just curious. A spider web seems to be the only one using mine. Nothing ever calls for it.

Nothing ever calls for it. because it only worked on a mac for a while and was little know, plus it costs more then USB because each port is dedicated not shared like USB Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/17366-video-camera-footage-to-pc/#findComment-201628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted January 21, 2007 CID Share Posted January 21, 2007 Well if they had made more use of it it would have been as cheap as the USB. It only figures. So only MAC ever used it. Sounds like a shame. Let a good thing go bad. Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/17366-video-camera-footage-to-pc/#findComment-201645 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a shame. Let a good thing go bad. it has just as many uses as USB, it will always cost more because you need a controller for each port.
