  @Jeff-Reed Make sure your machine can take PCI cards. You may be limited to PCIe. Ordered a star Tech PCI card for firewire 400 today and plan to try it out with a demo of movie edit pro. As I mentioned at the start, there are other, free, programs

  Thanks everyone for your responses. To be clear, I have the external canopus ADVC 110 device, not a PCI card version. I was assuming I would need to buy a PCI card with a FireWire port to see if the canopus external device would be recognized. Since

  RE: Windows Software to import Video with a Canopus ADVC110
  There are no drivers for the ADVC-110. There's no point in looking for them. It is treated by Windows as a DV camera using the Microsoft IEEE1394 drivers, as per that website I linked to. I found only 4 on Ebay, and they're being sold not because

  RE: Windows Software to import Video with a Canopus ADVC110
  @CubeAce @Jeff-Reed I think that site is a con. Do not use that software. The ADVC-110, AFAIK, does not have upgradeable firmware, and certainly doesn't have Windows 10 software drivers. It uses your Firewire card, which is run by the standard

  RE: Capturing Mini DV: Is it possible to adjust the output file type ?
  @CarpentersMate Mike: The MP4 is, to my eye, the wrong aspect ratio. It is currently 3:2 when it should be 4:3. The people's heads currently look a little wide, and setting the aspect ratio to 4:3 in MEP makes them look more natural. The aspect can

  @CarpentersMate Mike, Re QT, yes, we're both right. The Quicktime codec (which MEP 2013 has) is an MPEG 4-type codec and is placed in the MOV container (file extension). The later MEPs do not have that option, although we can export to an Apple
