    I have several licensed copies of Wirecast (Mac). I want to take a look at HDV, and I understand I can do that for free with a watermark over the image. I connect a Sony HDR-HC1 via Firewire, and no matter what settings I choose, I can’t seem to get the image from the camera. I just see a blue screen in Wirecast with the “unregistered HDV” watermark. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? – Paul

    Hmm, while I’ve seen the shot icon appear blue, the image should be normal in the main preview window.

    Have you upgraded with Wirecast 3.5.2? Please do and check again if you haven’t.

    Thanks, the update did the trick, but only on an Intel Mac mini. I still have blue on a PowerPC G5 which lacks in RAM. But the mini will do me fine. – Paul
