how do i upload videos from my Sony DCRSR57E Handycam Camcorder to PC or Mac ?
Hi I brought a Sony DCRSR57E Handycam Camcorder from amazon about 4 months ago and it came with no lead or anything to transfer videos. Now I really need to upload on either Windows PC or Mac I have both so please help, thank you !
If you check the manual
http://pdf.crse.com/manuals/4124309111.pdf
refer to page 5 - "Supplied items". USB cable is one of them. Item B. The other is the AV cable to connect to a TV to watch playback of captured video.
This is the same USB cable that is used by lots of consumer grade "personal electronics" like cell phones, MP3 or other multimedia players... Mini-USB on one side connects to the camcorder's USB port (see page 23 for location on the camcorder) and the other is a "normal" sized USB connector for the computer. I have used the USB cable that came with my BlackBerry to transfer media files from Sony camcorders and Apple iPods and Canon digital still cameras... to my Macs and HP computers.
Generally, when you put the camcorder in Play mode (be sure to plug the camcorder to power mains, too), the hard drive will mount like any other USB-connected external mass storage device.
The Sony standard def hard drive (and flash memory) camcorders record to a MPG file type - many times, the computer's operating system and video editor cannot deal with these files directly. This may not be the easiest way, but it is the most consistent and flexible...
Download and install HandBrake
http://handbrake.fr/
Copy the MPG files to the computer.
Launch HandBrake and transcode the MPG files to something the video editor can deal with. Lower compression is better - but the files will be large.
Windows Movie Maker likes WMV files and Macintosh iMovie likes MOV and MP4 files (among others).
When the transcoding is done, Quit HandBrake and launch the video editor.
Drag the transcoded files to the capture area or timeline (or "clips" pane)... edit. Save.
Export or Save As whatever final video file type and compression you want (and the video editor is capable of providing).
