I can capture HDV in vegas 7 but when I go to Capture HDV to DV downconverted footage from my Z1, vegas 7 cant see the camera.
How do i capture down converted footage from my Z1 into Vegas 7.

I still have Veags 6 on my computer which allows me to capture SD?

Any advice?

Cheers
Simon

You are using the EXTERNAL capture app for capturing SD???

Well this is what happens.
Firewire out of Z1 to computer,Vegas 7. Now when i capture the downconvert with Vegas 7, Vegas 6 capture page comes up. I have uninstalled Vegas 6 or so i thought.
Whats going on do you think.
Its the same with Vegas 8. It seems that Vegas 7 & 8 dont have a SD, DV capture page or am i wrong?

Cheers

The external capture app in Vegas 8 is named VidCap60.exe and is version 6.0d (build 999).

Thanks Edward,
How strange that they still use an old version for capturing SD.
I'm not going mental after all............ or am I.

Regards
