HDV capture problem with Canon HV 20 and VS11+ Trial

Post by pgroe »

When I connect my HV 20 over firewire with my computer windows just detects a "AV/C Subunit" and the VS doesn't detect the camcorder at all.

In different threads I read that I have to install manually the "Canon DV-Camcorder" driver, so I installed it. After that, I could capture my DV clips using the "MS 1394 Device Control", but when I try to chose "HDV 1394 Device Control" to capture my HDV clips VS says that there is no device or no driver installed.

Thank you for your help!

OK! I found the solution!

To capture HDV-Videos the "AV/C Tape Unit" driver has to be installed, but there was a missing file (mstape.sys) preventing this driver to be installed.

Where might one find this driver?
