trouble capturing from a SONY DSR-PD 150P

[theleprecon96]

I put it into VCR mode when its connected with a firewire and nothing. I even had a message saying "no capturing device detected", even though it appears in my devices and printers. Is there a setting on the camera that allows footage to be captured or anything ive missed? If so, how do i change it?
