I recently got my Christmas present, a Sony DCR-TRV350
NTSC digital 8 handycam. It came with a USB cable.
(I'll bet you know where this is going.) I made a movie
on Windows Movie Maker, then hit "export." Camera was
on, in VCR mode, ready to record. I hadn't hit the
record button. Anyway, it told me that no device was
connected via IEEE 1394 FireWire. Well, duh. I bought
kind of a low-end computer, and I don't have any sort of
fancy graphics card, just the one that came with the
computer. I have thoroughly examined the back and front
of my computer and can find no ports resembling a
FireWire port. Is there a way to export the same way I
freakin' imported (and what sense does it make for there
not to be?) or am I just screwed? (I ended up pointing
the camera at the screen and presenting the show
fullscreen, without saving and rendering. It was a
school project, due the next day, and the WMV file I had
created earlier wouldn't show up on the school's iMacs,
even though I had installed Windows Movie Player. Oh,
well...)
