Works great. In my case it was necessary to reboot the pc with the camera attached and running before the system noticed it was there. Then the app could control the DV camcorder.

I was amazed this software worked with my Win10 64b rig. I wanted to transfer old MiniDV tapes to AVI files on my PC. I have the Sony PC100 still intact and stuck a Firewire PCI card in my PC. You just connect the Firewire between the cam and PC, run the tape on the cam then click on Capture.. This captures what you play on the cam and stores by automatic date order on your PC. Absoluitely amazed that this software is 19 years old... Thanks Peter.

It is the only piece of software that makes my old Syba SY-PEX30016 firewire card and even older Sony DCR-TRV460 camcorder work with each other on new Windows 10 64-bit Lenovo desktop. It can not control the connected camcorder though, you have to start playing the tape manually and when you see the video appear on WinDV then press to start recording.

A very simple to use product. Very pleased I found it. I want to capture live from my mini DV camera and it does that perfectly.
