Color loss in Sony TRV-14E

[sandroasantos]

Greetings to all.
After saving money for more than a year, i bough one MiniDV cam Sony
TRV-14E. I also bought a Conceptronic Firewire PCI card to transfer my
recordings to my Desktop PC. I'm very disappointed with my cam because i
notice lack of color when i see my recordings on TV. Is there any way
to correct this loss of color in Software like Adobe Premiere and then
saving my films to Vcd/Svcd? I don't want to think that i spent more
that $700 for nothing. Can anyone help me here? And maybe, giving me
some pointers to websites with guides to better operate a MiniDV cam?
Thanks for reading this post.

You can always add color once you have completed your capture. To do so while you are capturing, you have to find the Source function of your program.

Thank you for your reply. Can you tell me from what software is the screenshot you posted? I'm using WinDVio for capturing ang Ulead VideoStudio 6.

That picture was from Virtual Dub. What will be your final format? Unfortunately I do not know how to adjust color for a DV capture, if it can be done at all.

Sorry for my late reply. My final format will be VCD/SVCD.
I installed Virtual Dub but i can't findo that screen.
Thank you for the reply.
