Capture Problems with Vista

While this problem is not specific to PE4, I am hoping someone will be able to help me.
I recently purchaed a Dell XPS desktop for video editing. I am unable to capture from my SONY HDRHC7 camcorder. The new computer runs on Vista Home Premium; my old computer (never had any capture problems before) runs on XP. According to Dell, Adobe, and SONY websites, there are no additional drivers that I need to capture video.
Has anyone had similar problems? And, if so do you have any advice? Thank you.

Hi Butch,
Here is your solution from the Read Me:
Windows Vista Compatibility
Windows Vista is a brand new operating system from Microsoft and has not been available in its final form long enough for Adobe to fully certify Lightroom for use on Vista. Adobe is working hard to finalize support or Vista as quickly as possible and will deliver appropriate software updates over the launch period. Lightroom 1.0 will install and run on Windows Vista but Adobe cannot guarantee the quality of the software experience until final testing is completed. Known issues for using Lightroom 1.0 on the Vista operating system are listed below:
Lightroom CD and DVD burning tools will not currently function
Importing files directly from a Camera or Card Reader may not function properly. Please
copy files to a local hard drive via the operating system before importing the files into
Lightroom
This may not be the answer you wanted but until the next release.........

    My apologies about not explaining further about disabling SPDIF passthrough. See the steps below to enable DDL encoding.
    ***Before proceeding please make sure that you've purchased, installed and activated the DDL pack***
    . Open Creative Audio Console, go to the Decoder tab to disable driver level encoding and enable SPDIF passthrough (this is done by selecting SPDIF passthrough or any similar option that enable the use of an external decoder) instead of using the built-in decoders.
    2. Open up your playback devices window (right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select playback devices) and set analog speakers (not SPDIF) as your default device. This is VERY IMPORTANT step, or else you get the "the device is busy" error when enbaling DDL encoding.
    3. In the Audio Console, select the Encoder tab and enable DLL encoding.
    Note:
    When DDL encoding is enabled, it makes exclusi've use of your SPDIF connection so, no passthrough is possible. The default output format when using DDL encoding is 48KHz/6 bits. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) when DLL encoding is enabled, then please change their output device to analog speakers instead of SPDIF.
    To use back SPDIF passthrough (when playing back media with a pre-encoded audio source), open up Audio Console and disable DDL encoding and in the Playback Devices window change the default device to SPDIF. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) then please change their output device back to SPDIF. You may also wish to change back your output format to 92KHz/24 bits (right click on SPDIF and select properties -> Advanced tab).

  • Airport Extreme Utility problem with Vista (works with XP, MacOS)

    Hi,
    I just setup a new Airport Extreme network at my house, and most things are working fine. I have wirelessly connected at various points an Airport Express (using WDS), a MacBook Pro (OSX) and an IBM Thinkpad. I have several wired machines as well.
    My problem: The wired machine I use to configure and setup everything is a Vista Ultimate machine. Unfortunately, the Airport Utility won't connect to the Airport Extreme (or Airport Express for that matter) from Vista. The utility works fine from XP or OSX, but not from Vista. Note that I'm using this in a wired capacity. The Vista machine is directly connected to the Airport Extreme, while several other machine are connected through a GBit switch.
    Any help would be much appreciated? Is this a Vista security problem or an Airport Utility problem with Vista?

    It's most likely a security issue with Windows Vista. Vista has the ability to set "compatibility modes" for applications.
    Try:
    1. right mouse clicking the Airport Utility's .exe file.
    2. Click the Compatibility tab. Change the Compatibility mode to Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
    3. Now go down to "Privilage Level" and check the "Run this program as an administrator"
    Apple never tells you this but you must connect to the Airport Extreme wirelessly. Now run the Airport Utility. You should see it.

  • Capturing Problem with Sony TRV330

    Capturing problem with Sony digital8 trv330.
    I recently purchased the above camcorder from eBay for capturing old 8mm/Hi8 tapes for editing purpose. The camcorder set to A/V -> DV OUT connected with Firewire to my Power G4 and the Easy Setup was DV-NTSC. The playback on the capture window looks OK except there were no timecode in the Timecode Duration Field and the Current Timecode Field (both shown 00:00:00:00) during playback but there was timedoce in the camcorder viewfinder. When I click the Capture Now button, the capturing window show up with message “waiting for timecode ….”. I have to click “esc” to stop the capturing operation. I trash the Preferences and Ran the Disk Utility without success. I also tried the Easy Setup with DV-NTSC DV Converter as well as DV-NTSC 32Khz, nothing work.
    My set up is: Mac Power G4 version 10.5.5/ F.C.E. 4.0.1/ QT7.5.5/ Startup 160 GB-89 GB available/ Scratch 350GB-277GB available. Folks, I need help. Thanks everybody.

    Hi, I have a similar problem. I am trying to digitize my 8mm tapes (via firewire) using final cut express (4.0.1). Using easy setup I use DV-NTSC DV Converter and do capture now. I transfer the entire tape but notice the audio is out of synch with the video. This problem gets worse throughout the transfer process. When I use the esc to complete the transfer I get the error " The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape....." So after searching around it is recommended I change the audio sample rate to 32 kHz option. However, when I do this using easy setup and picking DV-NTSC 32kHz I cannot use capture now because I have no timecode and so the window comes up with the message "waiting for timecode". Since there is no timecode this option does not work. Any suggestions? Thanks, Dan

  • Acrobat Problem with Vista X64 OLE calls

    Acrobat Problem with Vista X64 OLE calls - CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc") does NOT open its window in the CreateObject("AcroExch.App") - but opens a new (invisible) window. Works correctly in XP x64 and 32 bit Vista - happens with Acrobat v8 and v9.

    Again, I contend that something changed between 8.1.2 and 8.1.3.
    refer to http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b6fe7c
    To show the viewer, use the show method after the document is opened.
    In 8.1.2 you did not have to perform this extra step.

  • T61 - problem with Vista x64 NVS 140M drivers

    Hi!
    I have problems with Vista x64 and NVS 140M drivers. Thing is that if I install them, everything will be slideshow, even the audio shutters quite bad and CPU is constantly over 45%. I have tried different driver versions but nothing has helped yet. Any ideas?
    I wonder if anyone has the old 7.15.11.0129 driver and could send it to me? Maybe that would help.

    Try the following test:
    - Go to Vista Sound Control Panel to view the S/PDIF out properties.
    - Click on the Supported Format tab page, select Dolby Digital and click Test.
    Is the test OK?

  • FME capture problems with new PC

    Had FME 2.5 broadcasting live on old Win XP machine without
    any problems (with various capture cards). Upgraded to new PC
    (Vista, ATI Theatre 650 Pro Combo card w Dell media Xcelerator),
    and have had nothing but problems:
    1. Getting “The parameter is incorrect” error
    messages every time I start FME or change the presets.
    2. Audio only finds the “ATI AVStream Analog
    Capture” device, not the soundcard/mic (even though a web
    Flash encoder finds the mic fine).
    3. Video Device (also ATI AVStream Analog Capture) only
    captures in widescreen, not any other formats (even though card
    supports them). Plus only 720x format options are shown and if I
    try to scale above 720x240, it keeps same resolution and just fills
    extra space with green screen.
    4. Clicking on “Filters Properties” tab in video
    device settings causes FME to crash. Other video settings tabs seem
    to work fine (though audio device gives no settings other than
    “board properties”).
    Any suggestions? Can't seem to find anything that will help
    correct these issues. Thx!!

    Thx for the suggestion. I already had those drivers, but
    tried the latest drivers from ATI and then reinstalled FME. That
    corrected the green bar issue I listed in problem #2, and I can
    resize to a smaller output now. However, the other 3 issues still
    exist (parameter errors, does not discover mic/soundcard in audio
    devices even though other programs do, filters properties causing
    FME crashes). Plus I noticed that the audio "sample rate" selector
    is blank, showing no options to choose. When I try to test encode,
    I get an audio sampling error and it suggests trying another rate,
    even though no rates are listed. Any other Ideas? Thx!!
    Update - i figured out how to get the mic input to show in
    devices, but the audio sample rate problem listed above is causing
    all encoding to fail, no matter which audi source I use.

  • Problems with Vista/JRE 6

    I have Java RTE 6, Version 3 on my computer but websites do not recognize it
    and it's not even in my program toolbar. I went to get the firefox plugin
    from the Java website and while it was testing my JRE, it couldn't find it on

    running. I've tried on IE also and it doesn't work there either.

  • Problems with Vista Drivers on Satellite M100 (PSMA1E)

  • Problems with Vista Contacts (partner problems :P)

    I don't think I had any problems with the previous version of Nokia PC Suite to transfer my Vista Contacts. But that version did not support pictures (which I really wanted to have). So I upgraded to 6.83.14.1 which supports pictures. Though first of all pictures seems to be kind of buggy and refuses to transfer the contact if the photo is too big (have no idea if it's dimensions or size though).
    But my prime problem is that it refuses to transfer some of my contacts. I tried to find some connection between those that didn't transfer and found that all of them seems to be couples where only one of the partners transferred. They have the same address etc. (though mobile numbers can differ). But strangest is that my parents have both been transferred (and they to share everything except mobile phone numbers). Oh, and all have pictures too.
    Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this? Any help is appreciated.

    hi. i had the same. but try this (works with me):-
    open pc suite, synchronisation, then click settings.
    pc application click create new, then instead of vista select "outlook express (windows address book) " then next page select default.
    this should do it for some reason. now ALL my contacts have synched instead of half of them.

  • New iTunes, same sync problems with Vista

    Hi
    I got really excited when I saw in the fixes for the latest iTunes 8.1 for Windows that they had fixed sync problems with iPhones. They haven't!
    On Vista Ultimate the sync has always been a problem, with either OutlookSyncClient or AppleMobileSync (or both) frequently crashing. With the previous couple of versions of iTunes, in my case, it has happened every third or fourth sync. Now with the new version it is almost every sync. It took me five disconnect and reconnect attempts and a couple of reboots to succcessfully sync this morning.
    I've tried every fix I can find on line. I read that the Outlook sync problem was caused by an incompatibility with pst files that were not unicode. Oddly, I wasn't supposed to be able to sync with an old pst at all, but it did work erratically. Converting my pst to unicode didn't make any difference.
    With the AppleMobileSync problem, I read that completely removing all Apple software in a particular order, restarting each time between removals, then clean reinstalling, should solve the problem. It didn't.
    Now the problem is even worse and I'm at my wits end on it. Come on Apple, get a grip!
    If anyone can shed any light on this I would be really grateful!

  • Airport Express problems with Vista

    I have read on here that people are running the express with Vista an I am not sure how? I loaded the disk and everything come up but the Airport setup assistant. When I open the Airport asmin utility it is blank. I am not sure how to get this up and running any help is appriciated.

    I have the exact same problem trying to connect my Airport Express to my Vista laptop. I managed to get around it by using the Admin Utility, choosing "Other..." and then entering the router IP (for me 10.0.1.1) and password "public".
    However after I have enabled WPA2 Security the connection does not work that good. After a short while throughput is degraded and then it drops the connection completely.
    Is Airport Express supposed to work with Vista or what am I doing wrong?

    Thanks Elmer

    Hi Elmer,
    Sounds like the first thing you need to do is test for a hardware failure.  Check out Testing for Hardware Problems Using Hardware Diagnostic Tools (Windows Vista) and since it sounds like you are having problems running Windows for very long, skip to the bottom to the section called Using Hardware Diagnostic Tools when Windows does not open.  Run the tests and report back what you find, if anything fails then there is probably a hardware component that needs replaced, possible culprits include the memory or the hard drive based on the symptoms you are describing.  If everything passes, post that back as well, and let us know, and we can look for other causes of your problems.
    Good Luck!

  • Sound problems with vista 32 bit on xfi xtremegamer

    hi im havin sound issues with my sound blaster xfi fatality xtremegamer on vista 32 bit. the sound will sound like a skippin cd or sound like it is stuterin for a few seconds than it will play fine than do it again later on. i was wounderin if its a driver issue with vista or my sound card has broke? i had it runnin on xp and had no problems. can anyone help me please as my card is only abot 8 months old so if it could be faltiy i am still covered by warrinty.

    I don't know if it's the driver that's causing a problem or if it's one of your components that's causing a problem. All I know is that the X-Fi is working great on my system, both in XP Pro and Vista Business. I'm not 100% sure about this, but I think I installed the driver first and then the software from the leaked Vista Suite that I downloaded from a link in a post on this forum. Never had a problem with any of the previous drivers either, but on the other hand this system was built in november/december last year, so the hardware was fairly new at the time.

  • Login problems with Vista

    I have a 10.4.11 OSX server as an OD Master.
    All my OSX and WinXP clients can authenticate without problem.
    I received a new computer with Windows Vista Ultimate x64 SP1. I was able to make it join my domain without problem but when I try to log in, I get the following error " Procedure number out of range".
    IMHO, I believe the problem is with a default config in Vista x64 more that a problem with my server.
    Has anyone seen this kind of error before?
