trouble with 8.0C and 8.1

[George Wingard]

Although 8c will install on your computer running Vista64 8.1 is actually the correct program for the 64bit version of windows you are running…try Uninstall both then just re-install 8.1 not 8c

You need to read the error message carefully and follow the link to the Microsoft web site where it will give you another link to the software you need to download to get the help working properly.

As for Vegas Pro 8.1, it cannot see any FX that are not 64-bit. Wavehammer is not 64-bit. Wave Hammer Surround is. Try that instead.

I did that but assumed it was some bug since I wasn’t trying to go to a help section …just adjust an effect

Okay, thanks I will do that right after I take George’s advice and uninstall both and then reinstall 8.1.

BTW, this is my first post here…it’s great to find a forum where someone will respond….the SCM forum is becoming a ghost town.

Thanks guys,
Randy

Well I uninstalled both and re-installed 8.1 but basically getting the same thing.
I’m thinking it has something to do with my hardware. Whenever I turn on my deck Windows tries to install drivers for it…it knows it is a JVC SR-VS30 but can’t find drivers (I don’t recall having to ever find drivers for it on my old 32 bit XP system) and reports it wasn’t installed. I have Googled for the 64 bit driver but no luck….any thoughts?
Thanks again,
Randy

Do you have any other firewire video devices that you could test to see if they work? I just wonder if that deck doesn’t look like a regular miniDV firewire camera to Vista? I haven’t had to load drivers on Visa 64 for any of my firewire camcorders.

Yessir, I plugged in a Canon XL1S into the same PCI firewire card and it shows up in device manager

I just wonder if that deck doesn’t look like a regular miniDV firewire camera to Vista?

It seems Vista knows what it is because whenever I turn the deck on it states “Windows needs to install software for your JVC SR-VS30 AV/C tuner”

I haven’t had to load drivers on Visa 64 for any of my firewire camcorders.
When I plugged in the XL1 it didn’t do anything but make the sound that it was connected (didn’t seem to install anything)
Thanks John,

I ran across this post:

Just upgraded DSLE to MAX and purchased JVC SRVS30 deck, All went well, but I cannot get Matrox DV Device control to activate or see video of the deck. Using Premiere 6.5, Win 2K, & most recent (downloaded) version of DigiUtils 7.1.

How’s the JVC showing up in Device Manager? If it’s showing up as an Imaging Device, it’s using the wrong driver. You need to right click on it and select Uninstall. Then, go to Action>Scan for hardware changes. When it detects the device, point the Wizard to the DigiUtils setup files. Once this is done, it should show up as a 1394 DV Camcorder under Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Everything should be fine at that point.

My deck does indeed keep showing up under Imaging Device but following this guy’s suggestion I don’t know what else to point it to…do you?
Thanks for your patience,
Randy
