premiere doesn't see my camera

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Editing DV Films : One Thread

Using Premiere 6.0, and it doesn't see my Sony DCR TRV840. I have a Digital Origin firewire card installed. Premiere says "unable to connect to DV device." The software that came with the card is MotoDV and it locks up also when I try to capture video. Using Win XP. Researched and saw what looks to be a driver problem, but I don't know for sure. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I had a similar problam and found that my dv drivers from microsoft were missing because of a demo of avid even after a uninstall of the demo. I did a search on the web and found the drivers and reinstalled them and it worked.
