download video to iMovie from miniDV tape
I have movies recorded on miniDV tapes. I would like to download them to iMovie on my 2 year old iMac. I have a Sony Handicam that plays the miniDVs, and I can connect it with a cable via the USB port. iMovie (v. 10.0.7) will not recognize the camera, however, iPhoto does recognize the photos stored on the camera. The Sony has a streaming mode, but iMovie does not recognize it. I would simply like play/capture the complete tape on iMovie. Do I need a different cable for camera streaming to be recognized?
