I am trying to capture a video of my buddy drag racing tonight from my JVC DV500 video camera. I am pulling the video from a miniDV tape. While using Windows Movie Maker, I keep encountering a message that says, "An interface has too many methods to fire events from." Can anyone help me with whats going on? Does anyone know of a better movie capturing/editing software that may be free that I could use. I would really like something that I could edit the video with once I get it uploaded, am being that I cant even get the windows crap to work, I dont know if it will or not. Anyones help is appreciated.

 

Anyone? Should I post in multimedia?

 

I use Windows movie maker also...I get my vidoes off of my sony digital hi 8 so there shouldnt be too much difference...I just recently started doing the editing/posting thing so I am new too it myself. Im not sure i can help you specifically but ill tell you how i did it..Since i had lost my CD from the camera since its a few years old, in order to capture the video i went to sony's website and downloaded the correct driver by putting in the model camera i had..With that installed i used the USB streaming port on my camera instead of the firewire port. I know that my brother uses a miniDV so if I talk to him ill see what he has to say.

 

His is a JVC now that i think about it.

 

I loaded the driver that came with the camera, and I am also using the USB connection.

 

thats weird, im not very technical when it comes to that stuff really...All i did with mine was after i installed the driver i restarted the computer and turned the usb streaming on the camera on, then i hit the capture video button and that was it..maybe email or call jvc and see what they say.
