I currently work on a Mac that has iMovie and Avid Xpress Pro installed.
Before I installed Avid, I was able to capture HDV footage from my Z1 by using iMovie. Since I have installed Avid, iMovie will not function properly anymore. iMovie recognizes that my camera is plugged in, reads timecode, is able to drive my camera, but only a blue screen appears in my iMovie window.
I have since unistalled Avid and iMovie still doesnt work. At the end of the Avid uninstallation there was a message saying something about it could not uninstall all the files because they are now used by other programs. I am wondering if these files were not something that the Avid installer overwrote with their own "optimized" drivers.
Any help would be much appreciated.
....and yes, I have unistalled and reinstalled iMovie, plugged and unplugged wires, restarted and turned off everything in every possible order.
