My solution was to use Snapz..which was what I started with, before all this testing. I encoded with the animation codec and apparently did a better settings match in fcp.
I’ve had the same lack of success with software approaches. I’ve tried using Apple’s DVI to video adapter ( cause that is what a salesperson told me was all they had at Fry’s..) But, I can’t record, any ideas? settings? using a powerbook and an HVX 200.
here is a post from another site, with pictures. thanks for your time.
