Thank you! I went ahead and dumped my OLD QT 7 out of library reciepts, and re-downloaded a NEW QT 7 (same download) – seemed to solve THAT problem (again)… FCP now recognizes the device, and even controls it through the capture window, however, the capture preview is disabled – so, now to un-do some of the AV presets upset by my tinkering … now under view > video > playback, “none” is checked… and by all I have tried, will not select “Apple Firewire NTSC…” despite its bold availability (joke there… I’ll let it go)- through system prefs, through a new easy setup, or through audio/video settings …it simply doesn’t accept the ‘select’ ‘Apple Firewire NTSC…” by my current attempts. any ideas?
Again… thank you!
