I have a camcorder. Does it help?

windyjerry MM, I googled "1394 cable" -never heard of it before

Looks like it connects camcorder to computer. Sorry that I didn't make
myself clear, but my tape is the old-fashioned VCR tape.

Do you think there is a way to convert it?

Windyjerry MM, that's right, I have the super big tape. The machine is VCR 录像机。So I don't think it has 1394 connection.

Babie MM,could you please give some details? What kind of dazzle box it
is? I assume it is a hardware. Which studio software? Is it used to
edit the file once it is transmitted to the computer?

Thanks a bunch!!
