jackybrown Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Firstly, the DV and 1394 card are working fine in windows XP. Secondly, the 1394 card is a PCI cand and recognised in OS X 10.4.8 as attached PNG picture. I try to connect the DV to OS X 10.4.8 via 1394 today,but the DV can't not be recongised by the OS, only a unknown device was found.( in another PNG screen shot) I tried turn the DV in different mode,and turned on/off , plug in/out cable a few time, but still no luck. Any Ideas? I will appreciate even just guest, thanks.

AREOS Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I made similar question before, and found is not a problem, I install iMovie and inside the program all works ok, I can capture or use my camcorder as a player. Just use any software for capture, and you will see it works ok. I don´t know why OS X can´t see what type of hardware is connected, but iMovie can. Good luck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32751-camcorder-cant-be-recognised/#findComment-230707 Share on other sites More sharing options...

avian Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I had a similar problem when trying different firewire cards. Ive got both a camcorder and firewire audio device, and both would come up as unknown devices and not function with a variety of VIA chipset based firewire cards. With an ADS pyro64 firewire card everything just worked fine.

With an ADS pyro64 firewire card everything just worked fine. That means evan the firewire card is "recongized" by the OS X, but is not realing working. maybe I should try other one, thanks.
