If you could dual boot into XP or Vista there's a chance that the Panasonic USB driver would still work, or the free WinDV app that some folks use for importing footage.
I have a Panasonic PV-GS15 camcorder and am trying to upload minidv tapes from it to my desktop computer. My desktop is running windows 7 64-bit and will not recognize my camcorder to download from it. I use Windows Movie Maker but this is the first time I have tried to upload movies from this camcorder to this computer. According to Microsoft's website, the camcorder is not compatible with Windows 64-bit.
Is this a software issue? i.e. can I purchase software that would allow me to load from my camera to my computer?
Or do I need to purchase some sort of minidv player that is compatible with my computer? If so, can you recommend one?
Thank you.
