When I try to capture video from my DV camcorder the play, stop, rewind, forward, etc. buttons are all disabled (grayed out). There is no way to control the camcorder. Also, only "Fixed Duration" mode is shown. The "Full DV Tape" mode is never shown.
I am using DVD MovieFactory 6 Plus with a Sony DCR-TRV520 camcorder. My PC is an HP Pavilion Ultimate d4999t running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, Intel Q6700 CPU, 2 GB RAM, 560 GB free disk space, NVIDIA GeForce 8400.
I have completed or verified the following:
1. All DVD MovieFactory patches have been applied.
2. I have more than enough free disk space (560 GB).
3. I am using a firewire cable and connection.
4. Windows detects the camcorder and DVD MovieFactory displays "Sony DV Device" as a source.
5. I have used Microsoft Movie Maker with this PC with this camcorder and was able to control the camcorder with no problem.
6. These problems do not occur when using this version of DVD MovieFactory on a PC running Windows XP (32-bit).
Has ANYONE been able to capture DV from a camcorder using DVD MovieFactory 6 Plus on Windows Vista 64?????
