The camcorder is designed to accept fire wire connection to PC. The camcorder does not control the video communication..the PC does. The PC has to have software/hardware that will communicate with the camcorder. If your PC came with video a software program..it may or may not work depending on the program. If it does not work or seem to communicate, you will need to purchase a program (Pinnacle Studio 9 for example) to install onto your PC so the camcorder will connect and perform the video transfer tasks you wish. The JVC DV camcorders do not come with video transfer/editing programs. The camcorders are designed to work with most programs on the market. Your PC and the programs you have are the key to your situation and solution.
