This may be the worst possible technical combo of using Sony Software with a Canon camera...but its what I gotta work with...Sony pro 8.0b build 217 and Canon XH-A1 PAL.
I can capture in SD mode ok fine. Vista recognizes camera correctly as a DV camera.
When I change camera to HDV mode, vista still recognizes as DV camcorder.
OK
Vegas recognises camera as IEEE1394 device in SD mode.
but when I try to change capture settings to IEEE1394/mpeg2 (HD) device, it can "see" the camera.
Sony and Canon helpdesks all say the same thing..update drivers, reinstall, blah blah blah... I am an experienced system builder with 6+ years doing this. but this problem has me beat.
Has anyone out ther successfully used this cam or any other Canon with Vegas Pro 8 ?
