Yes, I just checked and my desktop does have a fire wire port on the front. In fact, I think I remember having a fire wire cord tucked away somewhere, but If I don't I'll definitely look into buying one. Thanks for the help!]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Hi all, I have a Canon Vixia HF200 camcorder that takes pictures and video, and it recently occurred to me that I could use it for brickfilming instead of my webcam. My question is, how would I connect it to my computer so software like monkeyjam or helium from would recognize it? I've seen others do this and the only way I could think of was turning it into a webcam, ex: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX9Nr_gDfr4.[/url] I know some of you out there use digital cameras instead of webcams, so my question is - How do you connect them to a computer for live capture? Thanks in advance.]]></content>
