Working with/learning video editing using Premier 6.0
Everyone told me right at first that I would need an AIEE card with a 'firewire' cable in order to capture videos from video cameras. So, one AIEE card and $50 later, I haven't come across one camera that has this connection.
Today, we connected a camera to an external DVD player/recorder and recorded onto a DVD disc. This disc plays fine on THAT recorder to TV, but my external playback-only DVD player will not recognize the disc when I try to play on TV- messages says 'BAD DISC'. This disc will not play back on my internal DVD player/burner either- saying that Windows does not recognize this format.
So, just how in hell does one get material off of a digital video camera onto/into his computer in order to edit????????????
