Help me !!! Firewire DV out problem

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware,microsoft.public.windowsxp.moviemaker (More info?)

Hi,

I have a LACIE PCMCIA combo PC card (USB 2.0 & Firewire 400) that I connect
to my Pinnacle Studio Moviebox DV box or to my DV Camera.
Everything works for video capture or for an external hard disk using the
firewire port, but I cannot send a DV back to the camera from any software
(Pinnacle Studio 9, Windows Movie Maker, WinDV, scLive, ...).
If I use another notebook with a firewire port on the motherboard everything
works.
If I install my LACIE combo PC card on this notebook I have the same
problem.
My OS is Windows XP sp1
Any suggestions ?

Thanks,

Lorenzo L.

Hello,

I guess the answer is that the card is probably defective or not truly
compatible. I have heard that some of these devices using Texas Instruments
chipset's are not always compatible with Movie Maker.

There is a utility which is very highly regarded called WinDV available
here http://windv.mourek.cz/ It has been known to succeed where Movie Maker
has failed.

I have personally had difficulties with Firewire cards using the TI chipset
and an M-Audio Firewire 410, Cubase and XP. NEC chipset cards work
perfectly. With the TI-based cards, Windows loses connection to the driver
in seconds.

I have found this to be more of a problem with PCMCIA cards, as many of the
USB/Firewire cards seem to use the TI chip. Adaptec makes a 3-port
firewire card (large connector only) that uses the NEC chip.

I already used WinDV without any results.

I think it is a strange problem ...

If I can capture video why I cannot send back it to my camera or my tv ?
Does not it change only the direction of the video flow (IN-OUT) ?
It is not software dipendent. I have the same problem with all video editing
softwares
Why I don't have any problems with an external hard disk ?

What do you mean when you say "truly compatible" ?

Is not Firewire IEEE 1394 a standard interface ?

In Device Manager I can see my Controller Host OHCI compatible IEEE 1394
that use the Microsoft driver.

Could it be a Windows XP problem ?

Some camcorders do not support DV in. What is the make and model of your
camcorder?

Does USB2 work for anything? I suspect that the card is not delivering
enough power. Does it have its own power supply or have a USB power
pigtail?

yes, it could be.

You can either try upgrading to SP2 or exchanging the controller
for another make/model. I would suggest exchanging the controller.
