Did you create a device preset?

I've had best luck with Texas Instrument chip-based cards. (Years ago I had a problem with a VIA-based motherboard port.)

However, be sure you have the so called "legacy" IEEE1394 drivers installed on your system. This has been an issue starting with Windows 7. Microsoft's default driver starting with WIN 7 is a newer driver that often presents issues for video capture. Win 7 shipped with the legacy driver that could be manually selected. Starting with WIN 8 one had to download the driver and install it manually. Win 10 uses the Win 8 legacy driver download. (Automatic WIN 10 updates might swap back to the new driver.)

hi
yes i create device preset,even select legacy ieee 1394 drivers follow the step not working two computer i wonder this pci-e card working or is there other card recommend
thanks

can you provide a screenshot of the device preset

firewire card needs to be FW400 and not FW800 and ideally with Texas Instruments chip set, VIA also works providing it is FW400

thanks all anton the card do both 400 and 800 i capture with this card many years ago i have digital 8 sony camera and sony dv player with ieee 1394 4 pin connecter not communicate to card even switch to play should i change different card i don't know which one to choose so far i am using now y/c to capture win 10.JPG edius 7 win 10.JPG win 7.PNG win 7.PNG

Your problem might be that the firewire controller chip in your camera or the card is dead or you have a bad cable.

First, I would try a new cable, especially if the connections feels a bit "sloppy". A bad cable can "blow up" every device you connect it to, so you could even kill your friends camera if you are using his as a test, so highest priority is a new cable.

Firewire is prone to electro static discharge or a short circuit when plugging in a cable to a powered on device damaging the chips. If a new cable doesn't solve the issue and it turns out to be a dead controller chip, the question is, "is it the camera or the card?" Try your camera on another computer if you have access yo one with a working firewire port. If the camera works in another system with a new cable, the problem is likely the card you are asking about, but if the camera doesn't work, you have a dead camera.

If it's a dead card, as noted, a card with a Ti chipset is best if you have a choice. As for which card to buy, I personally have a SIIG card in my system and that has been working great ( https://www.siig.com/it-products/fir...ewire-400.html )

If the camera is dead, you will likely never be able to get it repaired due to the age of the camera and parts availability.

May I suggest you buy one of these as soon as possible on eBay, as they are not retailed new in stores any longer:

It will protect firewire connections against static discharges, which can damage firewire cards, camcorders, etc.

why are you using a 720x486 project setting? it is not suitable for DV or DVD, stick to 720x480 with upper field, also set sound to two channels stereo and not 4 channel

the device preset is correct

when you plug in the camera, do you hear a win sound? does it show an IEEE device in device manager and the connected camera under imaging devices?

hi antons
no win sound it shows in device manager but no connected camera in imaging device i will change the project setting and try it again.
thanks

If Windows does not show a connection, then Edius will not see it. Windows must detect the camera first.

[antonsvideo]

yes, correct, until you see the device in imaging devices, there is no point in even opening EDIUS
