capturing
i recently upgrade to fcp 5 and i am trying to log and capture for the first time. i can control my camera through l&c (play,rewind, stop etc.), but i do not get a image in the browser. when i attempt to capture now i get a prompt saying a device has not been set. select a device in the capture preset. but i have selected a device both in the device setting and the capture preset. i’ve selected firewire ntsc, but still nothing. oddly enough i have been able to import using imove. i’ve changed firewires and still nothing. what gives? can anyone help? please!!!

#30 – Deck recognition after Tiger Upgrade:

The workaround is to download Quicktime *manually*, after removing the “receipts” which indicate that it is loaded. Specifically, I was told to do the following:
1. Navigate to Library -> Receipts on your main drive (not from your personal folder).
2. Remove all files of the form QuickTime*.pkg, where “*” is a version number. E.g. QuickTime600.pkg, QuickTime650.pkg, Quicktime700.pkg and QuickTime701.pkg. This simply tells your system that those packages are not installed.
3. Go to https://www.apple.com/quicktime/downloads and click on the “download Quicktime” link. DO NOT USE THE AUTOMATIC UPDATE UTILITY. Download QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg. Double click this file (probably on your desktop) and then invoke the installer by double clicking QuickTime701.pkg.
4. After your computer reboots, you should be able to restart FCP and see your camera.
