This has been giving me trouble so far, and I need some help.  How do I get both audio/video tracks?

What capture program are you using? Are you doing an analog capture or firewire?

I'm using Image Mixer, a SONY camera, it's a USB cable (is that a firewire?)...do you need any other info?

no...usb and firewire are different....what is image mixer?  dude get Premiere or something (try it for free, but then buy it)...it's not hard to get ahold of.

or maybe try importing the tracks separately and then placing them together.

Sorry, Walrus. Can't help ya. I'm not familiar with that program.

Although I've never heard of motion video being transferred digitally over USB - just firewire.

Most PC folks are using Premiere with a firewire card that plugs into your IEEE-1394 (iLINK for some cameras) connector.

Hey Walrus. I just got a Sony DV Cam with the same stuff. On one computer the sound loads and on another it doesn't--so I've yet to diagnose the reason. However, it's best to buy a firewire card (ebay's got them for around $15 or so) and pipe it into the computer that way. Then you can use Premiere to edit. Image Mixer is near impossible to do anything with. I'm sure if you have a Handycam model of Sony camcorder (I have a 350 model) it has the firewire output. Look next to the cam's USB output and it should be there.

Ok, I got the firewire , but I just found out Firewire needs it's own special port.  Am I an idiot for this?
