Hello,
I just bought a new Panasonic HDC-SD1 High-Def camcorder and downloaded the trial versions of both DVD MovieFactory® 6 Plus and Ulead® VideoStudio™ 11 Plus. With either, when I try to capture video from my new camera I get "capture driver not present" or "no device present" errors. There are no "drivers" for this camera on Panasonic's site, and I cannot find anything in ULead's knowledge base either.
I just want to be able to use these products first and make sure they'll work with my camera.
Can anyone help?
Capture Drivers errors for Panasonic HDC-SD1

First, to start, you don't capture your video from these avchd camcorders. You import them using the "Import DVD/DVD-VR Disk" function.
Depending on the order you installed the products I would recommend importing the avchd video files from the last program you installed. So if you installed MF6 last then import using MF6. If you installed VS11+ after Mf6 then use VS11+.
Reason being I had some problems, I installed VS11+ first, then MF6+. In MF6+ when I import a avchd disk the parameters are correct 16:9 aspect ratio. When i import in VS11+ the aspect ratio says 4:3.
You can also verify this when you import, maybe it's just my avchd disks.
