    Hi Eddie,

    I used the same profile and switched from “DV Capture” to “HDV Capture”. I can still control my camera, and click “Record”, but it shows that it’s recording to “Clip 1.mp3” (instead of “Clip 1.avi”). When I hit stop, I don’t get the popup to enter information about the clip – nothing. Any ideas?

    Cheers for all your help.

    Hi Eddie,

    Yes, that test succeeds, but the captured AVI file is only 720p. I have double-checked that the video was captured in 1080i (properties of the video on the camera). I’m thinking that I’m missing a codec perhaps. What are your thoughts?

    Thank you.

    Thank you Paul. The timecode counter is certainly moving.

    Thank you Jon for your response. That is certainly my experience. The problem is that the output of the capture is “.mp3”, not avi or mpg – the file produced is only megabytes in size and cannot be played back. I can capture in DV mode (as Eddie Lotte suggested in this thread), but that only gives 720p output and I want 1080i.
