Is firewire to usb cable ok for connecting DV videocamera (firewire) to my PC (usb) ?
Just for the records, I got one of these Firewire to USB cables from
ebay for $.99 and plugged it into my Sony DCR HC38. The computer actually runs Server 2003 which is not supported by the Sony USB driver, but nevertheless, all I got was an 'USB Device not Recognized' error. The Sony Motion Browser does not recognize anything, either. I will keep looking for a driver for this cable, but without such a driver imho this cannot work. |

Return it and get a PCI firewire card...

Have you actually tried to use an applicatin to capture from the camera? Expecting server 2003 to just lay it down like you were plugging in a thumb drive may be expecting too much. |
