Cari,
Yes, the date is not on the video. But it is part of the DV stream. When I
use firewire to capture the video, the date information is transferred as
part of the DV stream.

As an experiment I captured the video using Windows Movie Maker and saved in
DV-AVI format. Then I used a freeware to "inlay" the datecode on the video
and it worked fine. Now this is a two step process. If Windows Movie maker
had an option of "inlaying" the date code, when saving the video I think it
will work.

probably somebody needs to put in a request to Microsoft to add this feature.

thanks

And you could ask all the other video editing manufacturers as well, as none
have this facility
