USB cable analog camcorder VHS (red/white/red)

I use xp windows movie maker 5.1 service Pack 3 and wants to buy a compatible "usb cable" to connect the PC to the camcorder VHS (a red/white/red connectors) and use Windows Movie Maker as software.  (I currently use Movie Maker with the new digital camera as a source and works well)  I tried produced Dazzle and disliked the software and tried to use their cable with Windows Movie Maker but had no noise.  Could you recommend a stand-alone cable that would work with Windows Movie Maker by using analog VHS as a source.

Note: EZGRABBER product reviews did not look favorable.

Thanks Tombob

John,

Thanks for your reply.  I'm burning 30 DVD full VHS tapes with a
Standalone DVD recorder.

I'm only using the PC to download snippits of 1 to 3 minute film directly from VHS tapes that are
copies of old movies from the 1970s, taken with an original Keystone movie camera.
I prefer to use my old camcorder as a direct source, am looking for a cable that
would work without having to use software other than Windows Movie Maker.

The other alternative, I used a source on my PC, but I burned DVD
noticed that. VOB files are not acceptable for Movie Maker and it seems to be renamed
a position of acceptable files maybe isn't valid?

Thank you

Tombob

==============================================
I don't think that a cable will be your solution.

Movie Maker is designed to import from DV cameras
connected via IEEE 1394 FireWire. That's why I suggested
the passthrough method. IOW... Connect the analog VHS
Camcorder to the DV camcorder... There are instructions
in the articles I posted previously.

Analog camcorder for video Capture?

Maybe this article will offer some ideas on how
It was designed to operate:

What to make films with
Windows XP and Movie Maker
http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/MovieMaker/getstarted/whatyouneed.mspx

In any case...

The following freeware to convert VOB files to
.wmv format which is compatible with Movie Maker.

(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)

Format Factory
http://www.pcfreetime.com/
(FWIW... you can uncheck
all the boxes on the last screen)

After downloading and installing Format Factory...
Open the program and choose an output folder...
(this is where you will find your files when they are
converted)

Drag and drop your cfile VOB on the main screen...

Select "all to WMV" / OK...

Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

That should do it...

    Hello

    I created the DVD Qosmio G20 and this unit is probably more simple as on your F20. In any case if you carefully read the user for F20 manuals described therein:

    Video - in Port
    The port is used differently depending on the OS used in the computer.

    Windows XP Home Edition model: with the VIDEO-IN cable bundle, peripheral external such as TV, VCR, etc., can be connected to the computer and with WinDVR and WinDVD Creator Platinum 2 can be used to modify or view the entries.

    Media Center Edition model: with the cable to VIDEO IN cable or satellite set-top boxes can be connected to the computer to watch channels. Video not CAN NOT be retrieved for editing as in the model of Windows XP Home Edition.

    Now the question: which OS comes with your F20?

  • Iomega Portable hard drive now does not appear under "Devices" after accidentally deleted USB cable. USB

    My Iomega eGo Portable hard drive was connected by USB on my Macbook Pro OSX 10.9.5 cable and I was transferring my iPhoto folder.  Unfortunately, the cable dropped and I got a message on my laptop hard drive had not ejected correctly.   I reconnected it the cable, but now, it does not appear under devices in the search page.  I also checked the disc utilities and it isn't here either.  I tried to connect the hard drive of my iMac, but it does not appear in the devices out there either.

    Although I have been using a Mac since they first appeared on the market and can usually work things, I find it more and more difficult with all the new technology.  Everything that used to be so easy, one of the great things the Mac since MS-DOS.

    If anyone can help I would be very grateful, because I have a lot of files on this disc of old Mac and use the Iomega to backup my most important files.

    The drive may have failed.

    Try different USB cables.

    Remove the naked drive from the iOmega enclosure and test it in a known functional wardrobe.

    Ciao.

  • Connect an Ipod to a laptop by a USB cable

    I want to be able to play music on my IPOD from ITUNES on my laptop, but it is difficult, because my IPOD often disconnects from my laptop when I move or I move the laptop (due to disconnection of the USB cable). I want a medium that allows me to connect my IPOD to my computer without the use of a USB cable - so that I can play everything that's about it on my computer comfortably and without risk of disconnection and also the possibility of losing files on my IPOD if you unplug. Any help?

    Why not get a dock speaker for listening to music? Use of your iPod through the computer cannot be required if the iPod is the only device that hold all the media. If they were on your computer, then you would not have to use the iPod. See recover from iPod media if necessary. If your library is too large for the laptop then pick it up on an external drive. iTunes can be a little finicky with NAS storage, but if you really don't like not the cables then SIN might be the way to go.

  • Is it possible to set up a printer wireless without the USB cable?

    Hello

    I have a HP Photosmart C4580 and I wanted to set up to run on a network, but I don't have a USB cable. I tried to install it without one, but it does not appear on the network, and I was wondering if you really need a USB cable to install it?

    Thank you.

    1. turn Radio on wireless to the printer.

    2. on your computer, search for all available wireless networks. You should find a named "hpsetup". Go ahead and connect to this network and ignore all warnings.

    3. wait 1 minute after have connected you to the network. Then, print a network of the printer Configuration Page. It should list an IP beginning with 169.254.x.x.

    4. type this address in the address bar of any web browser. You will reach the Embedded Server (EWS) Web of the printer.

    5 use the Wireless\Networking tab at the top and looking for an option to ' 802.11 wireless networks. On this page, you will be able to enter your network settings wireless (screenshot attached to facilitate their identification).

    6. make sure that you change the SSID for your network name. Click on the option button 'Infrastructure' and enter your WEP\WPA pasphrase. ENTER THE SSID AND PASSWORD EXACTLY AS IT IS, OR IT CANNOT CONNECT TO THE NETWORK.

    7. click on the button to apply and wait for the confirmation of the parameters being recorded.

    8 restart the printer. Once again the Config network printer page. Now, it must have a such IP assigned by your router and not with 169.254.x.x.
