JVC GR-D270U- transfering pics from tape to computer

Watch the video at the link

install first the bundled software with your camera turned on and plugged in to your pc and then restart your pc if its necessary..

From the JVC manual "This camcorder can transfer still images to a PC via USB". There is no mention of video transfer via USB so it seems it is not supported.

depending on what connection you have on your computer. You can use usb to usb or dv to dv. If you use usb to usb it's pretty straightforward but if you go dv to dv just make sure which dv connector you have on your computer 4 or 6 pin. If you don't have a manual for your jvc , go to their website and download one. All of the info will be in there, usually towards the back of the manual. My suggestion would be if you have a dv connector on your pc you should use that setup because it is faster than usb. But if you don't have a dv connector, usb to usb is fine. Have fun.

I use a Dazzle transfer box via it's UBS port. I think I payed $85 bucks for it. BestBuy.

Hi, You need to use 4 pin firewire cable to connect to the PC. Switch on the cam. Open Windows Movie Maker and import the video from device.

The memory card is strictly for still photos. The tape is strictly for video. Transferring video tot he PC requires a firewire card on your PC (for direct cable connection).

Hi guys,
I have a JVC gr-d270. the CD came along with it is useless. my computer cannot detect the video cam hrough USB. I have to transfer my videos to my computer. Can anybody help me with the driver atleast. Im using windowsXP sp 2.
Thanks

The IEEE 1374 is the way to go. It is fast, and it is digital. Therefore, the video and audio will not be degraded in the transfer. The others are analog interfaces.

If this is an USB connection, I'd try another USB plug that you know works. Remember that MOTHERBOARD DRIVERS are often an issue. Some will accept a Windows Update driver and this happens.
