First off, I apologize for my lack of proper terminology, but i'm just getting started with video. Anyways, I recently tried capturing video from my camera onto my computer. Everything works, but the problem is the quality of video on the computer is horrible and it skips frames. It is not nearly as clear as when i play the video straight from my camera onto the t.v. I'm using the capturing software that came with the camera and the cable i use plugs into the usb port. Where is the weak link...cable, software?? or is this as good as its gonna get with the camera and computer i have?? Also, ten minutes of video is over 3 gigs...is this normal?? Any help would be appreciated! thanks!!!
