Hi , I have a test version of Movie Studio 2022 and Windows 10 Home

Are there limitation in the test trail version of Movie Studio 2022 to record och capture videos from my Sony DCR-PC350E miniDV via iLink/firewire . The SW Movie Studio just say "Could not connect to selected device". Use the File, DV recording tabs

First off, make sure your Firewire drivers are up to date.

See this post to update them:

Good oh! Yes, I like that Startech procedure. Nice and simple. Good luck with your DV editing. MEP loves DV; it was the first video format the program dealt with. I have fond memories of using DV with MEP.
