I 'inherited' a Sony DCR-HC44E mini-DV camcorder from my father-in-law.
I've been wanting to import footage from it into iMovie (FW400) but no go, camera is not recognised.
Tried USB, obviously, no go (why USB works on a PC and not on Mac is beyond me).
Going to try my FW800 port tonight (a colleague of mine is bringing a cable today) just in case something is wrong with my FW400 port, but I'm not very optimistic.
What are my options if FW800 doesn't work either ? Can it be done via USB ? Would I have more succes with other software ? Please help !
