    I decided to delete my original post “Houston We Have A Problem” as I was trying to install the software from the DVD that came with the camera. I downloaded the most current version from the BMD website and all is working now. I want to express my sincere apologies and hope I did not cause any problems. I feel like such an idiot 🙁

    I once had a Canon GL2 which I took out to a gig (it was a 2nd camera) and couldn’t record no matter what I did. After panicking, freaking out and doing everything I could to cover the job with one camera, I returned back to the office and shipped it to Canon to fix. They e-mailed me back a few days later and explained I needed had moved the lever around the record button to “lock”, which kept the state of the button locked. I mean, the darn lever was right in front of me, blatantly in the lock position and I couldn’t fix it… I never felt more dumb hahaha
