  Could you post some more specifics? How are you bringing in your footage, what model camera, even your system specs might help…

  According to this chart (https://www.avid.com/content/6844/DVDeviceQual_9_12_04.htm)
  it doesn’t appear your camera is supported by Avid. Has it ever worked in Avid? Go to your digitize tool(with the camera connected and powered on prior to starting the software), and click ‘check decks’. Check your deck preferences; make sure you have OHCI selected (double click on the channel), and try selecting the generic template…)
