Why Video isn't seperated into Clips?

Hello everyone, I was wondering, Why are my clips not being seperated into clips from TRV-DCR22 camera? They are being captured into one big clip. I want them to be seperated in clips that are easier to work with. I tought that once you take footage and stop camera and take more footage, they would put into clips. Can anyone help? Thanks.

VidCap is shorthand for the the program called Vegas Video Capture - VidCap.

Tell us what are you captruing in at th emoment? If you are using the "Capture Video" option from within the Media Pool - are you? Then you will have fired up Vidcap. Use it all the time. Well, if you look in Preferences . . .hold on I'll fire up Vegas . ..

. . go into Media Pool > click on the little cammie ""Capture Video" > Options > Preferences . . . On the "General" Tab you've got the very first option "Enable DV device control". While you are "rummaging" about this Preferences Menu have a good look at the other options . . .

Have fun,

Grazie

Thanks Grazie, for the information. I don't understand why it use to work I guess using my wife's camera it didn't work and on mine it does. Thanks I'll check that out.

Does the camera have anything to do with it? My camera works fine but my wifes DCRTRV22 doesn't seperate the clips? Is there some feature on the cammie?

Set the CLOCK in the CAMERA. Scene detection works on jumps in the Date/Time field.

Why doesn't Scene Detection work?
