Questions and Answers

How complicated is DVin enabling?
Actually this is very easy:
Under Win 95/98se/ME/2000 & XP

Using the supplied cable connect your camcorder to your PC and power on camcorder. Run the program supplied on the floppy disk. There is no need to install the software to your hard drive.
Press the "Identify" button, the software will identify Your camcorder.
Press the "Enable DV-IN" or "Disable DV-IN" button, according to what you want to do. Wait until the software has finished (this takes 1 to 3 minutes depending on your camcorder Model)

Please note: once the camcorder is DV-IN enabled using a PC it may be used on any editing system as long as the editing card supports the camcorder. e.g. Apple Imac.

Can I enable recording of analogue video ?
It is not possible to enable recording via analogue inputs on any model !

Do I have to enable DV-IN whenever I want to record a digital video ?
No. Your camcorder "remembers" that dvin has been enabled, even when you turn off power.

Can I disable DVin later?
Yes. PanaDVin makes this as easy as enabling.

What System do I need to use PanaDVin?
You need a PC with a serial port running Windos95/98se/ME/2000 and XP. It will not work on emulators (MAC, LINUX,...)

It is not possible to enable recording via analogue inputs on any model !

It works perfectly Rated:

By Anonymous: I bought the DS27B only understanding the usefulness of DV-in afterwards.
I rang Panasonic to ask about software to enable DV-in and they very strongly recommended against it, saying it would break the camcorder and invalidate the guarantee.
Well, I took the risk that most of this was sales puff from a panicky company and indeed it was - the software enabled DV-in just as it said on the packet and it's remained fully enabled ever since. Recommended.
