Capturing video from a digital video camera You can use muvee autoProducer to capture (copy) digital video files to your hard disk drive in either of the following ways: Live (known as camera mode) by using a compatible digital video (DV) camera. See "Capturing live video from a DV camera." Recorded (known as VCR mode) by using a recorded tape in your DV camera. See "Capturing recorded video from a DV camera." Captured video files are automatically added to your movie project. To remove the file from your movie project, select it in the list of captured video files, and then click the trash can icon. When capturing video, it is important to be aware of the amount of free space available on your computer hard disk drive. Capturing video can use a large amount of disk space. The amount of free disk space displays in the Capture Video window in muvee autoProducer while you are capturing video. Capturing live video from a DV camera Capturing live video in camera mode enables you to create a video file without even having a tape in the camera. To capture live video to your hard disk drive by using muvee autoProducer: 1 Connect your DV camera to the FireWire® (IEEE 1394) port on your computer. 2 Turn on the camera and set it to VCR mode. Refer to the instructions in the manufacturer's documentation. 3 Click the Get Video from Camera button. 4 Click Start Capture to begin capturing the live image directly to your hard disk drive. 5 Click Stop Capture to stop capturing. 6 Click Capture Folder to specify a folder for the captured video file. 7 Click Filename to specify a file name for the captured video file. 8 Click Done to add captured video files automatically to your movie project. 142 Getting Started
