HD201E - final cut aint seeing it!
 

I just plugged in my shiny new HD201e to my macbook pro - only to find that the camera is non-existant according to the computer - can anyone help!

Ive got the cam and the suite both set to HD 24p - and have got the firewire set to the right setting!

Do you have the camera in "VTR" mode?

Yes. I do - still not working

This is great - JVC tech support opens again on the 15th in Australia - and ive got shoot on the tenth - looks like ill be renting.

Are firewire fixes pricey- i've never had this happen in a camera before?

do a google search for DVHSCap and see if that program recognizes the camera for .m2t capture?

It does not see it. :(

Well, then it is not Final Cut alone. There is either something wrong with the Firewire port on the camera, or the camera is not a qualified device for either program yet. Not really sure.

Yeh - i think its the cameras firewire - is this a pricey fix?

Tried another firewire dvice into the mac?

I tested it so that i used a cord and port on the MBP that had previously worked and then plugged into the cam - (while both were off) and still nothing.
