between the hub and the PC may result in
instability in the operation of the PC. If this
happens, connect the camcorder directly
to the PC, not through the hub.
Do not use an extension USB cable.

incorrectly may cause malfunctions to the
camcorder and/or the PC.
Connect the DV cable first to the PC, and
then to the camcorder.
