Guys, this is terrible!
I have been happily working away capturing video in XP Pro on my old
machine. A week ago, I purchased an ACER machine Pentium 4, 3Ghz with 1Ghz
RAM. On the machine is Win XP Home Version 2002 SP1. I swapped the Pinnacle
card to the new machine and installed Studio V9.1. (A complete new package) I
have a Panasonic NV-DS30A video camera.
For many an hour now I have tried many different ideas from many different
forums to get answers on my error message: 'Capture Device Initialization
Error, Pinnacle Studio is trying to initialize a DV or Digital 8 Camcorder
via a 1394 port'. I have removed the IEEE 1394 Host Controllers, removed the
card, moved it to a different slot, downloaded so many possible fixes that
I'm sure that I am to run out of 80Ghz hard drive space soon!
My question is (apart from the obvious (HELP)) Under the IEEE 1394 Host
Controllers in device manager, is there only 'OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host
Controller'? Or should there be something else? I simply have that one drop
down. If so, can you point me to a download to add what ever it is I need?
Some knowns: 1. The same rig was working well on my other machine. I have
purchased a new firewire cable just in case - no joy. 2. I have changed
operating systems from XP Pro (on my old machine) to XP Home already
installed on the new one. 3. My Camera works fine. 4. I cannot get a capture
in Windows Movie Maker either. 5. My camera does not seem to exist at all
even though turned on to mains power, in camera mode.
I would really appreciate some thoughts on this subject.
