  • 枫下家园 / 生活杂事 / About Sony DCR-TRV17. Need help.
    本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛I just ordered a Sony DCR-TRV17 on-line, which cost $818+25S&H. I will bring it to Canada. Because the time schedule is tight, I have to order the 1394 card and cable before the camcorder is shipped to me. Some 1394 cards and cables were found on www.newegg.com, really cheap. I have no experience with miniDV, or video editing. Please provide me some basic infomation ( I post a message bofe and remember "bloor" and someone else bought the same miniDV). Thanks for any suggestion.

    1. About 1394 cable suitable of TRV17. 4-pin to 4-pin male, or 6-pin to 4-pin male, or other type? iLink=1394?

    2. Any type of 1394 card will work with TRV17, right?

    3. My computer is Dell Dimension 8100-P4 1.3GHz/128Mb/40Gb (15 Gb already used) with Windows XP. Is this machine, especially the harddrive capacity, is good enough for video editing and making VCD, or DVD format MPEG-2 file?

    4. Please recommend software for video editing and making VCD file. Are these softwares compitable with any type of miniDV and 1394 card?更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
    • find a 1394 card here: http://www.canadacomputers.com/periph.html#firewire The $48 one is good enough. Don't buy it in US, it's cheap in canada now. 4pin-6pin for the cable.
    • 1. iLink=1394, the cable comes with the card 2.yes, 3.enough, 10 mins org video eats up 1G space when you do editting. 4.it comes with the card, usually is ULEAD 5.0.
