Viewing Images on Your Computer
Notes
•You need the software and computer that support the exchange of digital video
signals.
•Depending on the state of the analog video signals, your computer may not be able to
output images correctly when you convert analog video signals into digital video
signals via your camcorder.
•You cannot record or capture video output via your camcorder when the video tapes
include copyright protection signals such as the ID-2 system.
If your computer has a USB jack
You can connect your camcorder to your computer using the USB cable supplied with
your camcorder. Note, however, that the image may flicker.
If your VCR has an S video jack
Pictures can be reproduced more faithfully by using an S video cable (optional).
With this connection, you do not need to connect the yellow (video) plug of the A/V
connecting cable.
Connect an S video cable (optional) to the S video jacks of both your camcorder and the
VCR.
