Capturing footage with the JVC GY-DV500
I have been hassling with the DV500 trying to capture footage into Vegas. Sometimes it’s ok through the capture, then when I stop, it reports a “device communication error” or something, and I lose my footage. It’s really odd, and not 100% predictable. I swapped out cables, firewire cards, rebooted, etc… sometimes it doesn’t even want to capture at all! Any insight would be appreciated!

Tim,
I don’t have any experience with Vegas BUT I would just suggest capturing from another firewire device should you have access to one. That way you can see if the camera is the culprit- or- if it’s Vegas that is giving you trouble.
Hope this helps.

Tim, did you ever figure out how to correct the capture problems with Vegas and the 500? I’m having the exact same problem. Have tried two JVC 500’s with same loss of communication.

I turned off the DV device control and that seemed to solve 80% of the trouble. What I think is going on is because the DV500 doesn’t have a “camera mode” and “vcr mode” like a lot of newer cameras, when you hit stop, the camera goes back into “camera mode” and the vcr disappears from the computer’s perspective. It’s still sort of funky sometimes, but I have it working in a way that is serviceable.
