Cannot see Sony DCR-DVD101E device

[Jon L. Miller]

Just setting up movei maker and I noticed that I do not see my camera
(Sony DCR-DVD101E) as an available device. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Movie maker sees devices connected via firewire. For your dvd cam you need
to remove the disc, insert it into the pc dvd drive and copy the files to
the hdd. Then use an app which will edit mpeg files. You'll find MM doesn't.
