"A video capture device was not detected"
Trying to capture video with a canon mini dv, no luck. Have connected with
firewire cable from computer IEEE 1394 to the DV port on the camera. When I click on capture from video device I get the message " A video capture device was not detected". Any one have advice? Computer is new, Camera is new and cable is new. |

"A video capture device was not detected"
Hello,
Try putting the camera in Play mode and attaching the cable. You should hear a "ding dong" sound, like the sound you hear when plugging in a flash drive. -- Singapore Web Design Singapore Web Hosting http://www.bootstrike.com/Webdesign/ "momz" wrote in message ...

"A video capture device was not detected"
Try on another PC..... if it's not recognized there, I'd suspect a faulty
firewire port on the camcorder itself. -- Cari (MS-MVP) Windows Technologies - Printing & Imaging http://www.coribright.com/windows "brute force" wrote in message ups.com... i can tell you ive tried this to get an answer to this for months. never get to the "ding dong" step. something to do with 1394 because it never recognizes the camera SingaporeWebDesign wrote: Hello, Try putting the camera in Play mode and attaching the cable.

"A video capture device was not detected"
Hello,
The cable could be faulty too. Verify that the Firewire card is working by right-clicking on My Computer (in Start Menu), clicking Manage, then Device Manager. If there is any exclamation icon on any firewire (aka IEEE 1394) device, the drivers are know installed. If you are unable to find it, (its directly under the first level for me), you may need to install the drivers. Sometimes the port may appear as a "Unknown Device" if Windows has trouble identifying it. -- Singapore Web Design Singapore Web Hosting http://www.bootstrike.com/Webdesign/ "Cari (MS-MVP)" wrote in message ...

Hi, I've tried everything too. There's been LOTS of correspondence about this problem. So why are we all having the same problem?

"A video capture device was not detected"
I am now having this problem as well. It used to work, but when I plugged
the firewire into the camcorder today, it didn't. Nothing has changed with the camera or computer setup. Has anyone else found a way to fix this yet? "Cantorion" wrote: Hi, I've tried everything too.

"A video capture device was not detected"
I also have the same problem Canon HDV. Cannot detect. It recognized the
camera in Windows with the ding I believe the first time and not again after that. Have also tried in an Adobe program as well. New Camera, cable and computer is quite new "bdcoen" wrote: I am now having this problem as well. It used to work, but when I plugged the firewire into the camcorder today, it didn't.

I have the same problem with a Panasonic Ds27 .. the firewire port works with an external disc but does not recognise the camcorder... it used to - could it be a new windows update 'feature' ?

"A video capture device was not detected"
Was having the same problem using IEEE 1394 with a Canon MV930 and Vista. I knew that my camera worked with Vista as it has previously on a laptop with Zoombrowser installed, but using Movie Maker (cant recall if zoombrowser worked). when I recently upgraded to Vista on my own PC and installed the Canon software, the camera could not be detected via firewire (USB worked fine). The solution was in the software upgrade. Using the the latest version of Zoombroswer (ZoomBrowser EX Updater (6.3.1)) I could not dectect my camera in Zoombroswer or Movie Maker. After hours of fustration I uninstalled all the Canon software and then installed the first Zoombrowser update compatable with Vista (ZoomBrowser EX Updater (6.1.1a). This resulted in my camera being detected by Vista and downloading via Movie Maker. Zoombrowser is still not detecting my camera using firewire, but this is acceptable as Movie Maker is adequate for now. -- hydrox ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hydrox's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/86826.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-xp-video/701215.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
