Hello
I recently purchased the new JVC HD Everio (GZ-HD7) that records in a beautiful 1920x1080. GZ-HD7 Website
I also purchased the latest Ulead VideoStudio 11 Plus and have found that when I plug my JVC HD Camera to it via Firewire it does not detect that the device is plugged in. I get a message saying ¡§No device found¡¨ Now the camera records in HD ¡§.MOI ¡§ Files and I noticed on the support website of Ulead that VideoStudio 8/9 Doesn¡¦t support ¡§.MOI¡¨ via firewire. But did not mention support for 11 plus. So I assume it doesn¡¦t work with 11.
Now that is fine but this is where the huge problem comes into place. I plug my camera to VideoStudio via USB 2.0 and the program still does not detect the camera!! The only way I can edit my video is to use the Cyberlink DVD software that came with the camera to export the content to the hard drive of the pc then convert it to mpeg 2 and transfer it to Ulead VideoStudio 11 Plus.
So my main questions are why doesn¡¦t Ulead VS detect my camera via Firewire or USB 2.0 when it clearly states on the package it supports editing of HD content via USB.
Thankyou
Any tips/help will be greatly appreciated

After you upload the files to your PC using the capture software that came with the camera. how are you converting it to mpeg?
Do you have other options to convert to?
also, do you know which version of directX9 you have?
Its an Intel Core Duo 2 Chip with a genuine intel board 2 gig ram, Windows XP,
If i use the silly cyberlink software it converts it automaticlly to mpeg 2 and then i can import it to ulead.. But i think thats silly. I would like to plug the camera directly to ulead and do everything with ulead.. But i get the message of device not found.. if you plug it via usb or firewire... im not sure if its a glitch with ulead and JVC HD Camcorders?
Thankyou
This is a HARD DRIVE cam... no software will see it because you don't "capture" with a HDD cam. XP (or Vista) sees the cam as just another HDD. Simply upload your file from the HDD cam onto your computer HDD.
The JVC has a MOD file. I know that in Avid Liquid 7 and Sony Vegas 7, all you need to do is change the MOD extension to M2T and then IMPORT it. I don't know however if Ulead will allow this. If not, then you will have to use the supplied software to convert the file.

JVC Everio GZ7
Hi Matt
I too recently purchased the JVC Everio GZ7, and have been a long term Videostudio user (from versions 8 to 11+).
I agree with your comments as to why VS11 cannot recognise the formats of MOI or TOD. I am forced to use the bundled software (Powerdirector5 NE for Everio) which is absolutely useless to convert to mpg2 (in my opinion this software drops frames).
The catch is that when recording high def on the GZ7 it records at a higher bitrate than is common to standard mpg, so JVC invented a new format known at TOD.
Reading the 68 page PDF file that is found on the JVC website reveals that you can use a firewire cable to connect to an external component such as a VCR or PVR. I tested it on my HDD/DVD player for the TV and records OK with no dropped frames. Yet the PC cannot cope with this. Neither the PowerDirector nor VS11 can detect this (I'm not trying to lift the file, but rather dub directly from the camera).
I admit that my PC is not super fast (is only P4 3.2GHz) but one would assume that if I were prepared to wait longer for the final render the final DVD that I produce would not show dropped frames.
I sent an email to Corel asking for the best way to edit content taken from the GZ7 and they replied saying that VS11 was TOD compatible and to use my firewire cable. I guess they do not fully research their answers .
I however will endeavour to find an acceptable solution as I do not want to defect to the awful PowerDirector suite (and yes, I have tested the full version with my GZ7, which JVC recommends to use, and still have no satisfaction).
Cheers
To give Videostudio credit I do find it user friendly.
