Will this work on a PC running Windows 8? I need to transfer digital video from my video camera to my computer. Will this work for me?

If Firewire works on your computer already, then adding this hub should be fine. I've used it with Mac OS X and Windows XP on the Mac. I have multiple chained together connecting my Hard Drives, D-VCR, Cable Box and TV... all at the same time.

not sure. I only used it with windows 8. but I only used it for charging. the software never worked. never showed up, the software supposed to be built in to the device. but i never got it to work. i would take the memory card out to transfer it to the PC.

Ya it will work for windows 8 too. I am not sure how good will it work on your system, coz for me it doesnt work that good, as it was shown in the video.

Yes, it works fine on Windows 8 (that's what I run). There's no difference in performance between using it on Windows 8 or 7.

This device connects to the rca output on your video8 device. You then "play" the tape on the device and "capture" the video on the included Cyberlink software that comes with this device. I use it on a Win8.1 laptop.

Question 1, most likely! If your PC has an extra PCI slot then it shouldn't have an issue. As for capturing your camera I'm not 100%positive it will but you can pretty much input anything into this that uses HDMI and it will see it. So I'm pretty sure it will work! just I haven't personally tried it yet. I have though captured another computers screen using this on my PC! Just be sure to get the latest drivers and you should be fine! Another thing too though it won't be a piece of came to capture, because this is made to capture ongoing video like games it won't know when you start your video, so you would have to start the video on the camera then hit record on the device and then you have your file, if your editing you can always trim the video so I guess it's not that big of deal. Good luck!

It should work with windows 8. I run windows 7 so im not 100% confident but from what I have heard no one has complained about it not working on 8.

I have that cam, I use it on Windows 8, and I also used it on my windows 7, there is no program for it, it should install the driver on its own. You may want to make sure there are no other cams hooked up at the same time it will throw it off. Anything have the same name will throw it off so you may have to rename it, or you may need to put it in a different USB port on your computer. It does work with Windows 7.

Hey, nobody answered the part about 'Windows 8.1' ...did this camera work for you using windows 8.1? (or has it worked for anyone using windows 10?

I don't see why it wouldn't. I don't have Windows 8 but I've plugged it in on a PC with Windows 7, and it worked fine. Not the sturdiest piece of equipment but it gets the job done.

I have Win8, and although it did work, it was an ugly experience to get it to do so, and the pic quality is very poor (5mp? NOT). Nothing but the cam comes in the package so you'll have to rely on generic drivers innate to your OS. If that's been working well for you (you haven't had to use disks to hunt for drivers) then it may work for you, it may not.

Hi Your question made to download the 2.5 and install it on windows 8. It did work well. I can not watch real time video but it does record. I have not tested other features.

Hi, I've only used it on my Windows7 and XP box and it works great. I have not tried it on a Windows8 machine.

I haven't used it on Windows 8 but it worked fine on Windows 7. I'd call their tech support number for assistance.
