Your hard disk camcorder is much different than a traditional camcorder in that you do not capture video with these devices in Sony Media Software applications. Instead, you move files from the hard disk camera to the local hard drive.<\/p>\n
1. Connect the camcorder to the computer via USB cable<\/p>\n
2. On the camcorder viewfinder, select “HDD”. In a few seconds, a Removable Disk window will pop up on your computer screen. Select “Take No Action” to close it.<\/p>\n
3. Left-click into My Computer and look for Removable Disk icon. Left-click into it and look for MP_ROOT. Left-click into the folder labeled 100PNV01 (you will see this if you are using the Sony DCR SR100; other models might have a slightly different folder name).<\/p>\n
4. You will see MPG files. These are the video files that you shot. Copy and paste these files to your local drive. Now the files are on your computer.<\/p>\n
5. Click “End” on the camcorder viewfinder and disconnect the camcorder from the computer.<\/p>\n
6. Open Vegas, Vegas Movie Studio, or Vegas Movie Studio Platinum. Go to the Explorer tab at the bottom of the software and navigate to the folder on your local drive that contains the MPEG files. Once you arrive at this folder, you can left-click and drag the files to the timeline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[34239],"storecat":[],"itemids":[32368,32371],"manufacturers":[33736],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n
