XH A1 Does not show up in Vista
Has anyone resolved this problem yet?
I plug my XH A1 into a working ieee1394 port and nothing happens, no "ding" and look for driver software, no device under device manager (except the IEEE host controller). I have tried SD, HD, Auto, Downconvert, etc. No luck on anything yet? Windows Vista Home Premium. Is the only solution really to go back to XP? I don't even have XP, and can't use some of my CS3 on it (After Effects, etc. gives me problems on XP). Anybody think of anything I can try? |
Are you turning on the cam power, setting the dial on VCR?
I have used the XH-A1 with Windows XP, and now with Vista Home Premium, no problem, no difference. Windows may not report a problem with IEEE1394, but you should look closely at the connector on the PC side. I did once have a connection problem caused by bent pins there. |
Brian I don't know what you are doing wrong but my XHA1 shows up straight away in vista I am using a Toshiba Satelite X200 S-20.
My NLE is Pinnacle Studio 11 not that it should make any difference because your computer should automatically see your cam without running any software. Alan |

I gave up trying to make it work "correctly" since I've still been able to capture from tape. |
I started having problems capturing video in XP Pro (which I had loaded on a new Dell XPS 410 that had come with Vista). I concluded that my firewire cards, made for a Vista system, were just not working right with XP. So, I upgraded to Vista Ultimate. Afterwards, I was able to capture with my HV20 just fine, and my XH A1 is recognized, but I'm having problems capturing from it, as described in a new thread I just started.

What I do not have is a way to plug it in, I am using battery power only when connecting. Can anyone verify that they can successfully use a fully charged battery as power while connected to firwire? |
