I can't Capture to Vegas.
 

Hi,
Vegas dosen't recognizes my Canon A1. dosen't let me capture.

Please let me know as I should do?

Thanks
Matthew

Is it hooked up to a firewire port?
If no, get a firewire card. They're cheap.
If yes, try a different cable.
Also, try hooking it to another (known to be working) computer to verify that the camera's firewire port hasn't been fried.

What Version Vegas ??

Hi Mike & Chris,

Mike I do use firewire, I also bought a different cable last night and still no go with Vegas however, I tried the camera with Pinnacle studio 9 and it works good.

Chris I use both Vegas 6c & 7c.

Don't know what else to do?

Thanks
Matthew

I hate to suggest it but maybe a re-install of Vegas?

Before you lost the ability to capture, did you make any kind of modifications to your computer? install new software? new hardware? yell at your computer?

hum let me think Brian, Yeh, yeh!! I do remmember now I did give it a good kick, But that was after it didn't recognize the A1.

On the seriously I think I did install a new program VEGAS 7c. Thanks Brian. Mike I think I'll reinstall the program again.
Eventhough Canon told me this morning that my new A1 was Toast!! and I am getting a new one.

Thanks guys
Matthew
