    Alright; i have a Canon GL1, and im trying to capture in you guessed it, Premiere Pro. When i try and capture on the top of the capture screen i get an error saying ‘Cannot Activate Recorder. Try resetting Camera.”, When I turn the camera off and back on i get the same message. If you ever had this message and maybe have a suggestion please help

    Assuming generic OHCI firewire setup…camera must be in VTR mode to have device control. Also possible are bad firewire cable/card or port on the camera (I have 2 cams with bad firewire ports).

    Might have to call canon and ask about that, sucks because i jsut returned this camera to have it repaired.

    Try another camera first to verify your system works.
