Sony DVD handycam and Mac

[pjo2001]

Hi everyone.

I have read some of the problems here associated with Sony DVD camcorders compatibility with Macs. Unfortunately I only found this out AFTER my colleagues got me a Sony 703e DVDCam as a gift.

I was wondering that as the Mac doesn't register that the camcorder has been connected, cant play the DVDs and the Sony doesn't have a firewire connector...could I not just install Virtual PC and access the camera through that? Or would the transfer of movie files through the Macs USB connector still block it?

Thanks
Patrick
