I have the above, a JVC GR-DX77 camcorder, and have been supplied with a CD-ROM labelled USB Driver, which includes Digital Photo Navigator Ver 1.0, a G.726 Decoder and ImageMixer Ver 1.7. The problem is, my laptop will not read the disc, as it won't read any discs I put into it, no idea why.

I tried to download ImageMixer with VCD Ver.1.1.2 myself from (http://www.imagemixer.com), but upon setup I receive this message;

'In order to use this function, ImageMixer VDC must be installed'

I get confused by that, because isn't that what I'm trying to set up myself?

Anyway, I gave up on that and connected the camcorder through my USB, my computer Finds New Hardware and I install automatically, it says it is done but it does not work, it just starts over again, asking me if I want to install from location or automatically.

I open up Windows Movie Maker and I get this message;

'A video capture device was not detected. Verify that a device is turned on and connected properly, and then try again'

I try again. No luck. Can anyone help? Any help would be appreciated

It;s a miniDV cam. Throw away the USB cable () and use firewire.

And WELCOME to the forums!
