Converting Analog to Digital
#3
ok i'm here for all your computer related questions:
for still images some camcorders have memory cards that pop out. there's a USB adapter that you plug the card right into and transfer images to your hard drive.
there's also optional cables that come with certain brands of camcorders that plug into the camcorder's special jack and go into your computer's USB or FIREWIRE ports.
If you don't have any of those there's two way you can go. you need to either get a video card that has tv in and plug the video into that. i think some of the ati video cards have that feature www.ati.com and some geforce video cards have it. check out www.pny.com for their line of video cards. and you would have to specifically look for tv-in. (tv-in not tv-out there's a BIG difference) or you can get yourself a USB to video/audio R+L cable. i think i saw one from www.buy.com that would be the cheaper road to go. that way you plug it into the video out and into your Computer's USB port. now if your computer does not have a USB port there's a card that costs like $20 that has 2 USB ports that plugs into your computer. I hope this gives you ideas of what you can do.

try the hauppauge wintv line of tv cards. they also have the rca video input, and it serves as a video capture device in windows. therefore, you get a tv card and capture card in one piece. try getting some software for capture...such as adobe premiere...windows movie maker (for xp) sucks, dont use that.
