I have a Digital Sony DV camera firewired to my G5, Using either FCP or iMovie it recognizes camera connected but when I try to import it fails saying either no video or camera no longer connected or both in succession.
I remember once hearing that it was wise to record over an entire tape to write a timeline in case there is a section left blank when recording as that would kill the continuity of the timeine. I do not believe that is the case here as it happens immediately on several tapes.
Also I can control the camera via the firewire cable so I rule out a damaged cable as well.
Suggestions? Thanks in advance.
