Today's status: Went to Best Buy to try to dig up an iLink/Firewire compatible cable... $30... No thank you. And they didn't have any Firewire interface cards. Bleah. That's why I hate going to Best Buy... It's off to Fry's tomorrow. They'll have what I need. Except for parking.

Yep, that's the first Fry's in SoCal... It opened in the late 80's, I think...

That railroad bridge sorta parallel to Aviation Blvd. and crosses Rosecrans Ave.... Smile

Great news: Picked up a Firewire interface card (IEEE-1394 cable and Ulead VideoStudio DV 5.0 included ) and it works with the DVC... Sugoi..!! I can now download the Digital 8 video from the Sony... Now I gotta figure out how to edit and convert the data to MPEG2 so I can burn a DVD... Oh, and now I've gotta get a bigger hard drive. At least 120MB. MAybe more... This Trick3 project is getting expensive.

hehehe.
i'm not picky, as long as it watchable and not on vhs, is fine by me. hehehe. although, watching trick series on HQ video format would be better (mpeg4 and mpeg2) and not mpeg1.

If DVD recorders were around $100, I'd say yeah, but they're still like $300, neh??

Besides, this gives me experience with messing around with Firewire and video editing software... It's educational!! hehe

Oh, I don't doubt it, Elt. But the prices will come down even more. And soon, I think.

Hey, do you know if you could use DVDRWs in 'em or only DVD+/-R discs?

I tried dvd-rw in mine and it didn't read even though the guy at best buy said it would work. I just use DVD-rams to record anyways though since they're rewritable as well and last longer.

yup it reads fine in the comp. Most dvd-roms will read dvd-rams nowadays. However dvd-rams wont always play in stand alone dvd players
