After all this hard work now I can't import it correct because it is in .VOB format. I have Pinnacle 10.7 install which supports this format but when I import the file it only shows me the first take. None of the others. I need the fifth take, which is at the end. When I put the DVD in the camera I can view it so I know it is there. How can I get my video? The camera doesn't have standard connection like DV, firewire or USB. It comes with a special little cable that plugs into a capture card but I don't have one of those There has to be a way off getting this off the mini DVD it is recorded on. I googled it and tried 2 other pieces of software ( Womble DVD and DVD zip) and those did the same thing as Pinnacle. Shows me the first take and nothing after that. Can someone please help me get my video? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Hopefully someone will jump in that can help you man. Have you tried tutorials on youtube? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I've been googling but all I can find is people that hate this camera. Now I no why. Seems like the only way may be a capture card and I don't have any money left for that.

A card is probably $50 - $100 and that is just a guess. Problem is also I have no money and the deadline for this is the 24th. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

If I tell the DVD to play in a media player(Windows Media) or a dvd player (WinDVD) it only plays the first track of the .vob file. It also imports the same way thru video editing software. The only way I can see all the track is if I watch it with the camcorder. Thanks everyine for trying to help out You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

At the top left corner, there's a "PLAY MODE" switch between "Video" and "Memory." Make sure that's set to "Video." 4. At the bottom left corner, there's an "i.LINK OUT" switch between "DV" and "MPEG2." Make sure that's set to "MPEG2." 5. Connect all your wires appropriately. The camera should be plugged into wall power. Make sure the FireWire cable is connected between the camera and your Mac. 6. Turn the camera on. 7. Hit "Play" on the camera. Be certain that HDV material is playing. 8. At this point, start up iMovie. This is very important. Have HDV material playing before you start up iMovie. 9. Make a new project, set for 720p30 HDV. 10. Now you can stop the camera playing if it hasn't stopped itself, and at this point you should have deck control from iMovie so you can hit rewind there and start your capture. Don't know if you are using a Mac but it might apply. I'm grasping at straws I know Monte You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I just got your PM so glad you worked it out! As far as audio editing goes, you could import your file into SOUND FORGE which is best in my opinion. If you have other music recording software like Nuendo, Cubase etc , that would also help! Let me know if you got any questions man By the way , my dad was suggesting me to get with new computer Matrox capture cards that are used by TV stations world wide.
