Question by 50 CENT: How to copy video from DV to computer?
I made this video for my film class but I’m having trouble transferring over from the mini DV tape into a computer using Final Cut Pro. I tried Log and Capture but after that, I don’t know how to save the video in the computer without having to use the DV tape ever again for editing.
So does anyone know how to transfer all the content from the DV mini tape onto the computer, preferably using Final Cut Pro?
I do not which Mac I’m using. They all seem pretty similar to me.
And I do not understand how deleting the sequence have to do with getting the video out.

You did not tell us which Mac.
When I use Final Cut and import, I use “Capture” and pull the whole tape in – and log later.
If you don’t delete the sequence from Final Cut, it won’t leave Final Cut.
