How do you get a video onto the computer? I have a cam corder but not sure how to get it on the PC.

what kind of camera is it,
ideally u want a DV cam if u have a DV out port on your cam, then u can transfer high quality footage. unfortunatly USB cant handle the 170mb/min that firewire can so if its USB your gonna be looking at about 2-3mb/min which is alot less quality but can still be edited up.

you will be best with a firewall cable from dixons/comet etc.. for about £15.
