How to capture the video of DV tape to the computer?

If your computer doesn't have a 1394 interface (that is, there is no 1394 card), you need to buy a 1394 card and plug it into the PCI slot. The 1394 card has three 1394 interfaces. Connect your DV with the 1394 cable that came with the card. In addition to the 1394 acquisition card, you must also install acquisition and editing software and movies that come with windows.

Maker can't meet the demand and the editing function is too weak. At present, the family editing software of "Sound and Shadow" is widely used, preferably version 8.0 or above.

"Sound Shadow" is a Chinese software, which can be used at a glance. The steps are as follows:

1、

Capture, through this software, control the camera to capture all the images on the DV tape to the hard disk. Video shooting needs a lot of hard disk space, and one hour of video recording needs about 12G. The bigger the space, the better.

2、

Editing, for beginners, needs repeated practice, such as shot segmentation, scene switching skills, adding subtitles and background music. The software itself brings a lot of material, you can use it.

3、

It takes a long time to synthesize and compress into a movie file and compress it into the format you need, such as DVD, VCD, etc. This step also requires enough hard disk space.

4、

To burn a CD, you need a burner and software. If you have a DVD burner, you can make a DVD. Only VCD burners can burn VCD or SVCD. If you make a DVD, you can also make your own menu, or you can use the recording function provided by video.

Collecting and editing video requires high configuration of the machine. Generally, the main frequency of CPU is above 2G, and the memory is at least 5 12M.
