RCA Hollywood DV-Bridge Camcorder User Manual


 
Hollywood DV-Bridge User’s Guide • Using Hollywood DV-Bridge With a PC • Page 17
Note: The Hollywood DV-Bridge utilizes DV drivers that are built into your operating sys-
tem. Once the unit is connected to your computer and powered on, the PC should rec-
ognize it and load the appropriate drivers automatically. You can verify whether the
Hollywood DV-Bridge is installed properly by checking the Windows Device Manager.
The unit should appear under the “Imaging Device” category as a “Microsoft DV Cam-
era and VCR,” “Generic DV Camera and VCR” or similarly-named device. Windows may
also add additional entries to the Device Manager when the Hollywood DV-Bridge is
connected. This is normal. If the Hollywood DV-Bridge does not appear in the “Imaging
Device” category, double-check the 1394 connection, disconnect power and reconnect
power. If this does not work, check your hardware’s documentation to see if a third-
party DV camcorder driver is installed, and whether instructions are provided on how
to remove the driver.
For detailed information on the Device Manager, please refer to your Windows Help
documentation.
