When I connect my Camcorder to the USB port, nothing happens, why?
It is a mini Digital Video Camera jvc dv
If you have a mini dv (cassette) camcorder …. The Dv Camcorder need a FireWire connection (IEEE 1394) to download video, your PC probably will not come with FireWire port, so you have to buy one and install it, since most computers (except possibly brand new) do not come with a firewire port, your camcorder not come with a firewire cable so you have to buy a cable as well. The camcorder came with a USB cable that is used to download photos from your video camera.
