1. Re: AVI files will not play with Camera Connected???
Ann Bens Apr 30, 2009 4:45 PM (in response to Macgyver777)When capture is done disconnect the camera from the computer.
Cameras which stay connected can cause issues.
When taping back to camera have you set the playback settings to external device?

2. Re: AVI files will not play with Camera Connected???
Macgyver777 Apr 30, 2009 8:10 PM (in response to Ann Bens)Well, I have never had problems leaving the camera connected on the previous computers. Most of our other editors in our news station. www.kcwy13.com have firewire decks attached and that are looped to a CRT production monitor. While playing/Scrubbing through a timeline it is on the firewire output. This is with Avid Newscutter.
I have tried changing all the availible settings under the "playback settings to external device" and no change. If I try and export a timeline to tape, the deck/camera is controlled correctly and goes into record mode but no video and the freezing of the program happens. The timecode of the Export to tape does not move and no video is on the LCD of the camera. It just records BLUE.
I would think this is a driver with the firewire but since the drivers are loaded by the OS I don't know any way they won't work other than some incompatibility with that chipset. This firewire adaptor has a Texas Instruments Chipset which I heard was the best to have....
