If you're having trouble getting the software to work, please tell me: What is the of your Sony camera? What version of Windows (e.g., 10, 11) are you using?
If you have the original CD, you can follow these steps to install it on a compatible computer:
| Software | Best For | Sony Compatibility | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Transferring DV footage via FireWire | Excellent (free, tiny, works on Win10/11) | | ScenalyzerLive | Batch capture from MiniDV tapes | Very good (advanced scene detection) | | OBS Studio | Capturing USB video from analog outputs | Moderate (needs USB capture dongle) | | VLC Media Player | Playing and converting MPEG-1 files from Memory Stick | Good (limited editing) |
