How to Get Individual Files From a DVD Made on a Sony Handycam
- 1). Power on the Sony Handycam and eject the miniDVD from the camera. Remove the disc and power down the camera.
- 2). Insert the into a computer with a DVD tray. You can not insert a DVD into a drive without a tray (such as a DVD drive found on Mac laptops or car stereo systems). This is because the smaller disc can move around the player without the tray.
- 3). Click "Start," (My) "Computer" and double-click the DVD icon. This opens a window with all of the video files currently stored on the miniDVD.
- 4). Click-and-drag the video file from the miniDVD to your computer. You can copy the file to any location you want, ranging from the desktop to a self created folder. Depending on the size of the video file the copying process can take a few moments to complete.
