Unable to capture

Hi:

I am new to Video Factory, so the first thing I did was
apply all the updates when I installed the application.

I am trying to capture from my Sony Digital 8 camcorder.
The video capture app detects my camcorder but cannot
control it. That's fine, I manually started the capture
and played the tape.

The app showed my movie while it was(supposedly) capturing,
and it even said the clip was captured when I stopped it.
However, the clip properties show a file of 0.1MB and when
I try to import the clip in Video Factory, I have a clip
with no audio and no video. Previous attempts gave me
clips with no audio/video streams detected.

Please advise. Thanks.

I also own Pinnacle Systems Studio DV. I noticed I could
not capture into Studio DV either. I uninstalled Video
Factory and was able to capture in Studio DV.

Perhaps there is a conflict regarding the capture drivers
that VF installs.

If anybody has been able to use both editors on the same
machine, please respond.

Thank you.
