Just over a year ago I CHANGED my computer which had the 6pin port to attach the video lead, and so downloading from my camcorder was fine.
My new computer has the new HDMI port, and I have also added a card which has a S Video and a DVI port.
Unfortunately I cant seem to find any leads that have the DV socket (to fit the camcorder) with either a HDMI / DVI or HDMI end !
Hope this makes sense.
Do I have to buy a new card, or are there any adaptors that would fit the purpose.
I'm running Windows 7.
PaulI'm not an expert, but if you post a pic of the cable coming out of your Camera, the end that GOES into the PC, I might be able to figure something out.

So this Camera is one that you have to play, and then RECORD on your computer, like an old VCR - Camcorder setup?
Its a '1394 6 pin' end (picture on a Google search), and yes its just a panasonic digital camcorder with the dv lead into the camcorder and the 6pin at the other end.
Its the 6 pin that wont fit the computer which is causing the grief.If I remember right 1394 is a firewire port, but correct me if i'm wrong hereHaving done a bit of research just now, yes it is a firewire cable.
Is it possible to get a connector for the HDMI or the DVI port ??Maybe you could by a fire wire card, such as on this List Here but you may find there is a small firewire connector on your motherboard's rear panel or on the computer case somewhere...
Firewire is more like USB than DVI, VGA, HDMI, etc, its used for generic data transfers like file transfers more than a sort of live video feed, and doesn't have to do with GRAPHICS cards. I won't say that black and white definitely but that's what I know. YOU can read the whole WIKIPEDIA article if YOU want Add in PCI firewire cards are not that expensive and will be your best option. Any computer store or on line site will have several to choose from. My computer has a firewire port on the back next the USB ports. I've read several comments that firewire and HDMI are not compatible due to copy protection issues.
