Are you are filming to tape. In HDV.

yes im filming to the tape.
and i play the tape when i try to syncronize. -
The PD 100 is a DVCAM camcorder so Vegas should see it if you hooked it up with a firewire cable and use the built-in video capture utility.

You don’t need your camera playing, just got to capture choose dv, then your camera should sync to your computer.

thats exactly what i do but no luck… it just keep saying please connect device
-
Please give us a detailed step-by-step list of everything you’re doing to connect the camcorder to Vegas.

i put the camcorder to the pc via firewire to DV on the cam.
the i set it on VTR on the power option, nothing happens. no usb connected sound or nothing.
then i open vegas and push capture.
the i use the first option DV and then it says please connect device.
i hope this is good enough a description..thanks in advaced

Those are the correct steps so I’m not sure why it isn’t working for you.
Go through the manual for the camcorder and make sure that there isn’t a special setting that you’ve overlooked.
Do you have another camcorder that you can try (to confirm that capture does indeed work properly)?
