Thanks

Jerry it helped. Final Cut recognized the Z1u. Why now and not several times before, I do not know.
Does not recognize the GV-HD700 deck… “Unknown Device”

So… Blown Firewire Port On deck you think?

Thanks for your help Jerry!

Same situation here. For me, no, “more info” does not see the deck. It sees my camcorder, but FCP cannot connect to the camcorder either. Firewire Missing.
Trashed FCP prefs… Old Quicktimes… tried new cable… Tried in iMovie, which recognizes the camcorder but not the deck. Tested computers Firewire port, it works.
Not sure what to do next. Ugh.

Tom,
Don’t know why. But suddenly it’s working. I don’t think I did anything different, but bam there it is. Thanks for taking some interest in my plight

[Blake Porter]

OK, trashed the final cut and title 3D prefs. Still the same. Question: In the text editing window of Title 3D do you see the shadow change “live” while you make adjustments? I do not.
Thank you, I’ve appreciated your help

[Blake Porter]

You might try trashing your prefs including your Title 3D prefs.

Sounds intimidating to me… System/Library/preferences… then trash all apple. preferences?

[Blake Porter]

I open Boris Title 3d in FCP Viewer, select Title 3D Click For Options, type in a word
Then select shadow from left hand side tabs (the bottom tab) click on T1 select Drop Shadow put an x in the little box tried many variation. click Apply. same old solid hard edge shadow.
It always comes back with the bottom box checked and same defaults showing.

All Styles in selected. Still no shadow control…

” Doesn’t Edit>Duplicate work…?” By gosh it does!!! Thanks you. I couldn’t get past my various copy n’ paste attempts. Boy, I’m feelin’ foolish…
Thanks Tom
