This document provides step-by-step instructions for transferring video from a miniDV tape to a DVD using a DVD/VHS deck and Firewire cable. The key steps are: 1) Connect the miniDV deck to the DVD/VHS deck with the Firewire cable; 2) Insert the miniDV tape and a blank DVD; 3) Use the DVD recorder to dub the video from the tape onto the DVD by selecting the appropriate record mode and starting the recording. When finished, finalize the DVD so it can play in other DVD players. Eject the tape and disk, turn off all devices, and return equipment when complete.
