Edit your own movies

Edit your own original movies by processing and re-arranging video clips and still images that you have loaded into your PC. Now you can be the director! Just shoot video with your camcorder and then edit it on your PC. Once you have finished your movie, you can play back it on your PC, send it through e-mail, or even show it on the Internet.

Add a camera to your PC

You can transform your camcorder into a peripheral for your PC. For example, when you are shooting a video, you can record on your PC instead of on a cassette. You can also use Windows conference over the Internet. (In order to conduct a video conference over the Internet with Windows NetMeeting, you must register with MSN Messenger and Microsoft HotMail.)
