Firewire to Videocam problem
This is a discussion about Firewire to Videocam problem in the Windows Hardware category; Hi, I use a Dazzle Firewire card to capture and edit video. Everything works perfect until I try to dump the video back to the camera. The camera doesn´t receive any video, some frames show up, then freezes up, then blank frame, etc.
Hi,
I use a Dazzle Firewire card to capture and edit video. Everything
works perfect until I try to dump the video back to the camera. The
camera doesn´t receive any video, some frames show up, then freezes
up, then blank frame, etc. I tried connecting the firewire card to a
different computer and everything works perfect in and out. I tried
connecting the card to a different PCI Slot, same problem. It seems
to me there may be a motherboard-firewire card incompatibility, Could
this be possible?. I use Windows XP and a PC Chips MotherBoard. The Firewire driver is a Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant. Maybe
the motherboard needs some tweeking?? new drivers?? Where can I found them?? Any thoughts on this?? thanks.

IS this somthing that always worked correctly until now or is this a new device set up?
hmmm. I say find some updated drivers using google, and checking your motherboard's bios. I've seen similar issues in my video production class. think tehy fixed it by a driver update. (reason for the problem was motherboard compatibility with the driver version.)

Thanks for your input. This has never worked corectly since I set it up. Any ideas where I can find the updated drivers?. I´ve tried Texas Instruments site, but I can´t find any drivers.

I'll help you find them if you can get me a make on the firewire card and your mobo.
