I think there's a device that does that, I'm not sure what it is though. Try to search google for it. Type in the exact line under google or yahoo.

It all depends upon what kind of connection you have on your camera. I have a digital camera that has a small port that is simular to the USB. I have a cord that has that connection on one end and a usb connecter on the other.

Easy hook up and the computer thinks it is another drive so easy to pull off pictures and delete them.

A camcorder may be different but if equiped with the right connection you should be okay. Did you not get software with your camcorder that would handle this?

I am afraid u cant do that.The video output will be in analog(composite out)format but the USB uses digital format.I recomend u to buy a firewire port(IEEE 1394) which is faster than the USB 2.0

When I came into this thread, I assumed you were talking about an old-style camcorder. Like the ones that were around before computers became popular.

If that's the case, then you need to buy a TV Tuner. They range in price anywhere from $20-80 (usually around $30) in Canada. I don't know where you are, but the US won't be too different, parts of Asia will likely be cheaper (especially places like Hong Kong)

The TV Tuner will have one end that connects to your computer (either USB or through motherboard, depending on if you buy internal or external) and the other end will have jacks just like the back of your TV.
