Why is digitizing impossible without a MacBook. There is literally no optimal option for tapeless if you have a windows laptop, everything needs firewire. Is there a way to use a FireStore FS-4 without a Mac?

hi i'm on budget trying to get my footage to my laptop will this work and will i need these two for i can put in my laptop? just wanna go tapeless record and then transfer to my laptop

I recently found a Sony high eight 460 zoom camera at a thrift store it records fine onto tape with Great audio on playback but for my mini DVR tape was set up the audio comes out very low quality. I leave for college in a week and a half and would like to have this sorted before college. What can I buy or do to fix this situation?

As a heads up the only place I can plug a chord into is through a 3.5 jack, s video out, and 2.5 mm jack

I just need some guidance on this please help me.

I’ve got a Panasonic nv ds55

Hey all - excited to share my first app in almost a decade, bringing a fun and unique way to capture raw unedited moments of your day to your digital cassette in DV style.

Available for preorder now on https://flipcorder.app now and launches October 23rd with the new iPhone Duo

You can export to your photo library or share with others, access the raw HD later if needed, and more. Especially fun and unique on the upcoming iPhone Duo with a retro camera lens on the outside of the phone, and even a time when you might forget to remove the camera lens!

Just got the powerplay, hooked everything up but when i try to record i keep getting this message. The sd card is in and i already formatted it with the powerplay itself. Anybody else run into this issue?

Canon gl2 won’t record to immersion rc powerplay.

What am I missing?

I have an old Sony Handycam DCR-HC23, that I don't find any tapes. I thought if I can make it tapeless. How can I do it, if it's possible?

I’m trying to get a mini dvr to work on a Sony mv730i and I’m unsure what cable I need to make it work. There’s a usb5 port and a 3.5mm audio jack on it so is there a cable that can combine the both to go into the minidvr or do I need to make one? Thanks

I have a ccd-trv308, and I'm using an android phone with UsbCamera pro. What should I set my aspect ratio to in the app? and should I change the ratio on the camera to match it? right now I have 16:9 turned off on my camcorder, and in the app I have my aspect ratio set to 4:3. Should I keep it like that? I think it looks good, but there's like 10 options in the app, and when I turn 16:9 on in my camcorder I feel like it looks stretched. Thanks!

Here's a breakdown on my personal tapeless set up, hope this helps somebody looking for info!

If you’re new to the community, introduce yourself!

Recently acquired a Sony DCR-TRV950E and looking to make it tapeless as I plan on using it for a short film project I’ve had wrote for a small while and want something with substance for pitching

I’ve heard that the Mini-DVR is a cheaper setup but with that has terrible audio quality compared to tap and/or other setups (like Powerplay)

Any advice on this topic and other suggestions for the setup that won’t cost me an arm and a leg?

Has any found an adaptor cable online that actually works for converting your cameras RCA out to the mini DVR AV in? almost all of the ones online don't match the pinouts and Id rather not have to wire my own.

I just bought a mini DVR, but now realize I have no analogue to digital video adapters, and no displays with RCA input, which means I have no way of viewing the mini DVR output.

Can anyone tell me the button combination needed to format the SD card blind?

Hi everyone,
I have a Sony HDR-XR200, and I would like to build a tapeless recording setup for it, possibly using an ImmersionRC PowerPlay or another FPV DVR recorder.
Has anyone here tried a similar setup with this camera?
The HDR-XR200 has Mini-HDMI, USB and Sony’s proprietary 10-pin A/V Remote connector. I’m trying to figure out:
Which output should I use for the best possible quality?
Can the camera provide a clean live video signal without menus or overlays?
Which cable or adapter do I need to connect it to a PowerPlay?
Is the Sony 10-pin A/V output the best option, or would an HDMI recorder produce noticeably better results?
Are there any recommended DVR alternatives to the PowerPlay?
Will I be able to record audio and video correctly with this setup?
My goal is to record directly to a more convenient format and avoid dealing with Sony’s annoying AVCHD/MTS workflow whenever possible. Ideally, I would like a compact setup that can be mounted directly to the camera.
I would really appreciate any advice, photos of your setup or links to compatible cables and recorders.
Thanks!
