  Fresh Install of Tiger and Final Cut Studio – Can’t capture DV!

  Posted by Mitchji on June 24, 2005 at 6:22 pm

  Hi,

  I started with a new hard drive. Freshly installed Tiger and Final Cut Studio. Repaired permissions, updated to 10.4.1, ran Disk Warrior and repaired permssions again.

  Now I can’t capture NTSC DV using a Sony GV-D900 (the walkman DV deck). I normally use this instead of our DSR-11 for DV (as opposed to DVCAM) capture because sometimes the DSR-11 doesn’t play DV correctly.

  With Batch capture I get:
  “Batch Capture – preparing for capture”
  “Batch Capture – cueing source material”

  The footage is cued correctly then I get:
  “This operation could not be completed as there is no video” (I can see the video on the external monitor).

  I tried both firewire NTSC and Firewire Basic, same result.

  Then I tried capture now, same result.

  What next?

  Thanks!

  Mitch

  Did you upgrade with any FW devices attached to your Mac? If so thats why. Unhook all external FW devices and reinstall Quicktime and Tiger
