How do I connect a video camera to my computer if it doesnt have anywhere to plug in a USB cable?

  • I need to get videos off of my video camera onto my computer to edit them and put them onto dvds, but I can't hook it to my computer because the video camera is so old it doesnt' have a usb port and the only thing the camera does have are video/audio out ports .

    Depending on the features available in your camcorder model, here are a few things that you can do to achieve your objective: 1 -- If you have firewire port in your camcorder, get a firewire card installed in your PC and then using the s/w provided with the camcorder, transfer the video onto the pc. 2 -- If your PC has a TV tuner card, give the o/p of your camcorder to this tuner card and then get the video transfered onto your PC Here is a helpful guide to transfer videos from camcorders to computers. http://www.digitalvideoclub.com/basics/transfer.php
