    Go into Preferences->Video and uncheck “use external video application”.
    Unchecked it will capture HDV,
    Checked it will capture DV

    I did what you did and now I don’t have the choice at opening capture, but it will capture HDV and DV as described above.

    Have to figure out how to get the initial choice back.

    This happened on the Linda O’Connell Post below.

    DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE CAPTURE CHOICES BACK (FILE-> CAPTURE->DV OR HDV)?
    THANKS JK

    Hold down CTRL+SHIFT when starting Vegas. It will restore all factory defaults. This will get rid of any presets you may have set up as well so be fore warned.

    I have been struggling with capturing HDV for months now, and still can’t make it work. I have a Canon XH-A1 and can set it for either DV or HDV output OK. I have set the Vegas7 to “External capture”
    or ‘internal. Nothing works. I can capture HD fine, but Vegas7 never sees the camera on HDV.
    What else is there to try? Thanks for any insight on this.
