Hi all. . .

I think I'm nearing the end of my truly newbie questions. That is, once I actually get up and running, perhaps I'll be able to figure some stuff out on my own!

Here's my issue:

I fire up FCP (5.1) and this is the first thing I see:

"UNABLE TO LOCATE THE FOLLOWING EXTERNAL DEVICES:

DVCPRO HD (720p60) (1280x780)
DVCPRO HD OUT"

It then gives me two choices: CONTINUE or CHECK AGAIN.

I shot my footage in 720pn24.

What does this mean. . . and what, if anything, do I need to do about it?

Thanks much.

It means that your camera is not plugged in and turned on...

No worries!
