Hi,

For connecting camcorder to a pc :

1. Navigate to Library -> Receipts on your main drive (not from your personal folder).

2. Remove all files of the form QuickTime*.pkg, where "*" is a version number. E.g. QuickTime600.pkg, QuickTime650.pkg, Quicktime700.pkg and QuickTime701.pkg. This simply tells your system that those packages are not installed.

3. Go to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/downloads and click on the "download Quicktime" link. DO NOT USE THE AUTOMATIC UPDATE UTILITY. Download QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg. Double click this file (probably on your desktop) and then invoke the installer by double clicking QuickTime701.pkg.

4. After your computer reboots, you should be able to restart FCP or FCE and see your camera.

For connecting you’ll need a firewire cable and a firewire port on your computer. This is a 6-4 pin Firewire cable…the small end goes in the camera and the larger side goes into the computer. This is most common on a Mac.

I have a samsung HI8 too and the only port it offers is for an s-video. My pc has a 1394(firewire)port but the camera has doesn't. The firewire will go into my pc, but the camera only has a place for the s-video? so what next....
