699891 2008-08-24 03:37:00 I use the program WINDV, I have set the settings right: type 2 MAX AVI Size: 1000000 Discontinuity treshold 0 etc etc
The transferring seems to go fine, but after playback on the pc, the picture goes very slow but the sound is fine, its like a sort of slowmotion effect. Other AVI files on the drive play fine.

PC Specs: Pentium 4 CPU 2.4 Ghz 1.50 Gb RAM

Thanks in advance

699892 2008-08-24 03:42:00 If youre using firewire and have XP, / and a firewire connection on a camera, transfer it with Moviemaker

It'll probably do a better job

699893 2008-08-24 03:46:00 Hi Speedy, I knew you would be the first one to post! How's it going? Movie Maker...ok I will give that a go.
I have a firewire connections and transfer it with this program called WINDV, I have done it before and it was fine.

699894 2008-08-24 03:50:00 I'm good :)

Just turn the cam on, then load MM.

Then click on capture from video device, select it then let it do its thing

699895 2008-08-24 04:08:00 Thanks Speedy! It worked, tell me though (if you can) That a transferring a video with WINDV is 326 mb and with movie maker 56Mb? mark1978 (13845)
699896 2008-08-24 04:11:00 Cool :)

Probably because of the different video format .

It sounds like WinDV saves as AVI, MM saves as WMV
