You need to be running Mac OS 10.5.3, FCP 5.0.4 and Quicktime 7.0.3…minimum. If you don’t have those versions then you won’t be able to do this.

Pardon me, Mac OS 10.4.3.

Dang, we need an edit feature so we can correct our posts.

Shane,

Thanks for the quick reply. I am running 10.4.4, FCP 5.0.4, and QT 7.0.4.

One thing that I hadn’t mentioned in my origina post, is that I don’t even see the card on my desktop.

i think I read somewhere that the card has to be in protect mode (flip the little switch on the P2 card).

Thank you guys for helping out. Once I downloaded the driver that Steve linked to, it worked like a charm.

Thanks again,
