• Please help me figure out what kind of av port is this, need a cable to connect to a videocapture device. Thanks.

  According to the manual the cable is a Samsung AD39-00119A. However, even if you find it you shouldn't use it. Video captured over composite cables is low quality. For MiniDV tapes you should use the top port on the camcorder which is a Firewire port. You need a 4 to 6 pin firewire cable and a Firewire PCIE card. I believe it may also be possible to go from Firewire to thunderbolt by using a Firewire 400 to... Source: 10 months ago

• Converting MiniDV to Digital

  If you're on Windows, you can add Firewire to a desktop via a PCIe expansion card - Startech make good ones. Capture can be done with Premiere or WinDV. Source: about 1 year ago

• How can I capture video on my computer with Sony DCR-PC 100 and FireWire?

• Enforcing VEGAS Video Capture to only capture DV tapes as 29.97i

  I think what I would do is try one of the other DV capture utilities. It's not like the quality is going to be any different - the results will be identical. The question is: do any of these still work? Well to my utter surprise, the WinDV site still exists and the software does apparently work on at least Windows 10. So I think I'd try that first.

• How would one keep identical output settings with no compression whatsoever? All I want to do is trim my video clips.

  I use it to trim all my game clips. It also supports displaying HDR videos properly, something I'm not aware if similar programs like VidCutter have. Source: about 1 year ago

• LosslessCut: The Swiss Army Knife of Lossless Video/Audio Editing

  Not sure exactly what your use case is, but I use vidcutter for lossless clip extraction and it works great and does not require Electron (it's QT based I believe). https://github.com/ozmartian/vidcutter. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Free Video cutting app

  Https://github.com/ozmartian/vidcutter give this a try, use it under Windows 11 as well as Arch Linux and works fine in both cases, the other option is Avidemux but for simple cutting and joining, this app is faster and easier to work with. Source: over 1 year ago
