Dear Sreedevi- I am surprised that it worked at all in XP. You need to capture it with a FIREWIRE CABLE and NOT an USB2 cable. This is the old problem- they sell you a camera with USB cable and this cable is only good to capture your stills from your camera and not the movie. You need to get the firewire cable and if your computer has not got it a firewire capture card on your computer. They are pretty cheap available but you need to check whether you have a free slot on your computer! Good luck Stefanie Kappel ARPS Photography & Digital Imaging
---If I may expand a little on what Stephie is saying......the USB interface COMMONLY FOUND on most DV camcorders is more of a "webcam" interface than anything else. You could conceivably connect your DV camcorder to your PC via USB and use it as a webcam, you could even CONCEIVABLY CAPTURE its output, but "it aint broadcast"...it's just a webcam interface and a way to download stills. The NLE and any capture application will not regard it as a "DV-source" but more as a digital still camera with some motion capability. The whole concept of using USB for DV camcorders was an unsuccessful attempt by other manufacturers to connect DV gear to a computer but it was dreamt up at a time when FireWire did not exist yet. Apple saw the inherent problems and devised FireWire as a better method and Sony foisted the tiny 4-pin FireWire port on the entire industry. It's a delicate connector and very temperamental, but it WILL deliver broadcast quality files where USB will not. Sure USB can be MADE to work, but not properly in an NLE system. It’s the old saying, "garbage in...garbage out". Most barebones FireWire cards are just the card itself and you can use any third party DV capture application with them with a reasonable expectation that they will work if they are DV capture specific. With the more expensive cards you get a software disc with bundled programs that the manufacturer feels are appropriate, like Media Studio Pro from Ulead or whatever. With Adobe you can just open the capture window and Premiere will "see" your FireWire card and go to work. The next trick is to identify your particular digital camcorder and there is a way to do that in Premiere programs. Simply open the MOVIE CAPTURE application and select EDIT under the DEVICE CONTROL settings and find your particular model of camcorder or VCR. If you cannot find it, then try one of the GENERIC settings. JeffH Ch.S. --- AVG Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
