Hi Jon,
I did all the notes you said and have the same problem. I made sure all the settings are correct and tried other settings just in case, and it is still the same issue. When I set everything for HD, I get a “Capturing from Hardware” and doesn’t capture any frames. I do go to the capture folder and have the clip there but it’s 546kb and there is nothing…
When I do DV settings (because I think my friend said he was able to figure it out but he had to do it through that way) it just acts like it’s capturing but when I click stop, it says didn’t capture any frames…
I’m stuck… I tried a different firewire card (same type but another one) and different firewire cord but still same issues. I’m able to control the camera fully, but not able to grab footage off and capture it to the computer, both on the HDV route and the DV route.
