I have a JVC camcorder I just bought and want to use the windows movies maker to make movies of my new little boy. Looks like the camcorder has a plug on the back that says DV. I assume its a 4 wire firewire port. I don't have firewire in my machine. If I buy this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16815104226 Will I be able to access my camcorder? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The Camcorder is a JVC model GR-D270.

Thanks
David
 
Yes!
That has all of it.
I would get virtualdub to capture if the Movie Maker doesn't work to capture (I haven't used that before)
Good luck!
 
Your camera supports both USB and Firewire so if you have a small USB for an mp3 player, still camera, plam... you can just use that.
