Windows 10: Software for Sony Handycam CCD-TRV57E

Hi, I have a CCD-TRV57E camcorder handycam which used to belong to my son who sadly passed away 13 years ago. It has sat in my cupboard all these years and I feel now is the time to copy on to disc the tapes that he took. Unfortunately my lap top wont recognise it and when I got in contact with Sony they said because it is an old version they have not got the drivers for it. I would like to know if any of you has got the software including driver that I could purchase from you. If you have perhaps you could burn a copy for me it would be much appreciated. kind regards Gordon.

I need a driver for SONY Handycam CCD-TRV69E

Hello,

I used to work on UNIX and I saved programs sources on HI8 cassettes from a server with UNIX utilities(tar, cpio, ...).

I want to create a directory on my laptop with WINDOWS 10 containing those program sources.

Those cassettes HI8 run on my SONY Handycam CCD-TRV69E. So I need a driver to connect my camera to my laptop in order to download the program sources saved on cassettes HI8 to the directory in WINDOWS 10.

Thaks for your help

Windows 10 and Sony CCD TRV-608 Handycam Don't Match ????

Hi Calvin,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

Sorry to know that the Sony Handycam fails to work on Windows 10. I will certainly help you.

This issue might occur if the drivers are incompatible, outdated or incorrect.

I suggest you to install the Camera USB driver in Compatibility mode
and check if it resolves the issue.

A compatibility mode is a software mechanism in which a software either emulates an older version of software in order to allow incompatible software or files to remain compatible with the computer's newer hardware or software. Follow below steps:

1. Go to your manufacturer’s website and download the Driver’s setup file for your computer.

2. Right click on Start and select Device Manager.

3. Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers, right click the
Sony USB Hub and select Uninstall.

4. If you are prompted to Confirm then Confirm.

5. Go to the location where you had saved your downloaded setup files of the drivers and right click, then

select Properties.

6. Select Compatibility Tab.

7. Place a check mark next to Run this program in Compatibility mode
and select the operating system

accordingly from the drop down list.

8. Let the driver to install and then check the functionality.

Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.
