How can I remove white noise/static from a video on my digital camera?

My video camera is protected?

• Hi! I got a Sony HDV-1000e video camera. It got 1080i, aka HD. But when I try to record it on a computer, it seems like it can't get connection/it is protected when I choose HDV, but it works fine with normal bad quality DV. Screenshots when I try to connect: Sony Vegas Pro 8.0: http://img3.imageshack.us/i/sonyerrorvegas.png/ MAGIX Pro edit : http://img823.imageshack.us/i/sonyerrormagik.png/ As you can see with Vegas the screen is just blue. And with Magix it stays: "The chosen directory is write protected. Cannot write any data." Which makes me wonder if the video camera is kind of protected. May that be the cause? If it is, how can I remove the protection..(?) And why does it work to record in DV format, but not in HD, when it is a HD camera. I've read the manual, and followed what staid there, but still, it dosen't work. And kind of help would have been higly appriciated! Thanks in advance.

  On most sd cards, there is a little switch that prevents files on the card from being edited.
