How can I capture a video with Windows 7

Question

I am trying to capture a live video from my digital camera using Windows 7.

Live Movie maker and Windows Movie maker 2.6 do not have "capture" menu item.

Apparently, Windows Movie maker 2.1 has a "capture" menu item. However, I don't know how to download it on Windows 7.

Any suggestion?

I recommend VLC. Cross platform and free. Getting video from a device is pretty easy.

I use one note's 'capture video' facility- video is stored in one note itself, but can be saved wherever you want it to be.

You may want to edit the post and try that second link again.

Another option is to use a web-based method like www.screentoaster.com. This is free and can be used from any version of Windows Mac OS X, whatever.
