I have a JVC GR-HD1 and my computer doesn't detect it on the firewire.
The camera is set-up according to the instructions. The computer will detect 2 other cheapie JVC cameras I have. I was running WinXp sp1, didn't work, upgraded to sp3 still nothing. I bought a new firewire card which uses the same VIA chipset and still nothing. I tried it on my laptop which uses a Texas instruments chipset, nothing.
I tried the camera on a friends Sony computer that uses a VIA chipset firewire but also says SB2 on the driver and it worked. I could control camera from the computer and capture both Dv and HD.
Any thoughts why it only works on the Sony computer? I'm going crazy trying to figure this out.

Thanks.

Hi


I dont have my cam . I sold it awhile back. the problem is in the menu on the cam. there is one setting that must be changed. I wash I could remember. I install the software like 10 times before I found the problem. I do remeber that you would think this would be the right setting the way they have it worded, but it is not. As soon as I change it . The system pick it right up. You might look back in some of the old post. It should be there . I talked about this before and read some other post on this same problem.

Hope this might help
