FCP Quits on Capture/Not reading Firewire HDV?
Hi All,
I’ve read a couple of similar posts lately but haven’t found an adequate answer yet, I was wondering if anyone can help.
Essestially when I plug in either a sony Z1p or relevant deck (Firewire) Final cut pro, will either crash when I open Log & Capture or it will open it but i wont have deck/Camera control etc I’ve tried every different re-boot combination I know, trashed and restored preferences etc
I had this problem when outputing DV Pal yesterday on my G5 and was able to get it happening on my laptop and external drive for an ‘output’ but today when I want to capture – nothing! I read a few different posts with this issue.One link I tried – https://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852
Did not work, please can someone help? Thanks in advance 🙂
