Kevin,
I am having similiar problems with this handycam that my new company is using. Until I arrived, they had been editing on iMovie, so the camera is automatically recognized and it starts looking for footage almost instantly.
I use FCP, but in my log/capture or log/transfer it won’t recognize it. I’ve tried all the hdv settings, any sony setting , non controllable , everything i can think of. All I know is i want to NOT import to my hard drive everytime i import, but imovie doesn’t allow for any other storage location options.
so, right now my process is.. import to iMovie straight to my HD, then open FCP and import footage clips, moving their location to my external.
god it’s awful…
can you help?
