DV cam and PC no longer talking
Hi
My Canon DV MV550i was working fine with my XP system until recently when I tried to edit a piece of video and found that the camera was not even detected. I have heard that there are issues with SP3 and Firewire - does anyone know anything about this, or has anyone else experienced this problem? The camera works, the cables work, and I managed to download the footage directly to a DVD-R and burn to a DVD, but I really need to be able to edit the video clips, which I have always been able to do (in Pinnacle) until this happened. Any help appreciated. |

Hi
Thanks for your response, but the problem is not with the editing software, but with the fact that my PC no longer detects the camera through Firewire and I am unable to transfer the video to the PC at all. regards "Andrew E." wrote: Windows media encoder 9 series & its utilities lets you edit,encode,convert,etc, also,xp movie-maker does also.

Did you try turning off the PC, opening the case and physically removing the
1394 (firewire) card.... turning on the PC, make sure everything else is working, turn it off again...... reinsert the firewire card, turn on the PC... does it recognize it now and install as new hardware. If not, the card has died, buy a new one. -- Cari (MS-MVP) Windows Technologies - Printing & Imaging http://www.coribright.com/windows "Tim" wrote in message ... mine was ok untill i had to format my pc, its now on xp service pack 3, i dont know whats wrong but my camera is not being detected through my fire wire card it apears that theres no driver in device manager when i try the add new hardware it wont find a driver either "Cuz" wrote: Hi My Canon DV MV550i was working fine with my XP system until recently when I tried to edit a piece of video and found that the camera was not even detected.

The PC will not reinstall the firewire card as new hardware unless it is re-installed into a physically different slot. -- Cari (MS-MVP) Windows Technologies - Printing & Imaging http://www.coribright.com/windows "Tim" wrote in message ... mine was ok untill i had to format my pc, its now on xp service pack 3, i dont know whats wrong but my camera is not being detected through my fire wire card it apears that theres no driver in device manager when i try the add new hardware it wont find a driver either "Cuz" wrote: Hi My Canon DV MV550i was working fine with my XP system until recently when I tried to edit a piece of video and found that the camera was not even detected.
