Jvc 1394 dv driver

No legacy driver required for this one. I'll reiterate, without administrator rights enabled on the computer, the ieee card would be found, but no camera detected. I'm pretty sure it works in my Dell Vostro i computer. Remember that when you are buying cards, they may or may not work on your motherboard or version of windows. I forgot to mention in my original post that somewhere in windows XP sp3 updates is when the ieee stopped detecting the camera.

I suspect security updates in windows would have been the cause. Fast forward 5 days and I've been away and havent used the computer, except to install some old HDD's in it. I'm getting close to buying an old Mac or something just for capturing from the firewire port.

I'm offering a solution but there may be security ramifications and it may not work forever. Most people report the port is detected. But no longer I stumbled accross a very easy fix. Here's the fix. Thanks to Mitch Bartlett from Technipages. In case that link stops working. If prompted, enter a username and password that grants admin rights to the computer. Close the Registry Editor and restart the computer.

I dun have any kind of a software disk to recognize the camera once I plug it in. If it is a desktop, 6-pin is extremely likely. See here for a picture of a PCI card with 6-pin connectors. Posted on Sunday, April 17, - GMT FunkyMunky, Couple of questions: 1 Are you sure you have the camera plugged in to the firewire port, turned on, and set to "play" mode sorry for the dumb question 2 What OS are you using?

For my standard "DV capture debugging" list, see my April 2nd post just above. If this doesn't help, we can correspond further. Megan Unregistered guest. I have tried to connect my camera JVC GR-D33 to my computer using firewire many times and ways and am nothing is working!

I've tried 2 different firewire cables and the same thing happens with both. When I go into any software have tried 3 or 4 to capture video the computer will control my camera fast forward, rewind, play , but the video does not come across and nothing gets captured. Can anybody help me?? What am I doing wrong?

JMB Unregistered guest. I have changed the cable, exchanged the camcorder, and tried the multiple suggestions that I have found on this site. I purchased this device only because of the ease of connecting it to the PC for video editing. I will purchase a firewire card if that is the only way for this to work, but I would think it should at least be seen on the USB port by the PC. Posted on Wednesday, April 27, - GMT JMB, 1 I assume that your completely followed all the instructions that were provided for using the USB connection, in particular the exact order of installing software and connecting the camcorder?

Just something quick and easy to try. Once you are doing that successfully, you might not care so much about the stills via USB. Normally, camcorders make pretty mediocre digicams You have already explained that you can control the camera remotely from the PC. When you click the red "record" button I think most are of these programmes are pretty much the same , what do you see next?

Is the camera still running? Does the preview screen go black? Also, what OS are you using? The camera runs but the preview goes black. This camera captured just fine pryor to SP2. After SP Posted on Tuesday, May 03, - GMT av8rmech, if this is a problem which really only began after you loaded XP SP2, then maybe you should take a look at the following web page, where another user describes how he cured his "post SP2 install" problems by reverting to SP1 drivers.

But this is something you should only consider if you are very PC-literate AND can back up all important data before you try K I have a long suffering problem similar to many of the above.

I recently bought a firewirecard and I have adobe premier. My firewire card is installed o. Can anyone help I'm at my wits end!!! Couple of things to start with: 1 have you fitted a memory card in the camcorder? One other JVC owner said this fixed his problem. I can't even see where a memory card would go..

I have only got windows In my case that is because it is very old -in yours, because it is an up-market tiny device I suspect. Have you checked in Device Manager to ensure that your firewire card is showing up OK? Also, when you connect the camera and turn it on, then regardless of any capture programme running, in Device Manager you should see something like "Microsoft DV camera" suddenly appear under the heading "Imaging Devices" If you DO see the camera under Imaging Devices then try a different capture programme such as VideoWave or VideoStudio.

If you DON'T see the camera, we have some further debugging to do. Let me know. So I had to download the drivers off the net. Last thing I also have a fairly old camera.

It's the upright kind with a side pop out screen. Thanks very much for your help Chris. Posted on Saturday, May 07, - GMT Also I forgot to add that, No my camera doesn't come up in device manager just in case that wasn't obvious from the post Thanks again Chris. That is the section where I see the camcorder appearing and disapearing If yes, under there, can you see an "Unknown device"? No sign of Imaging Device in device manager.

My camera is plugged in and switched on yet I still don't see any sign of it. Thanks chris. Where is the IEEE port located? And what cable do you use? I tried connecting using the USB port, but the computer didn't recognize the camera. I checked my other Win98 computer which has never had a camcorder or digicam attached, and that too does not have "Imaging device" as a category in Device Manager.

That leads me to believe that the original request to insert the Windows 98 disk did in fact remain unfulfilled, despite the "drivers" you downloaded. I would concentrate on getting your firewire card to ask again for that Win 98 disk, and figuring out why it can't see what it wants. Sometimes, Windows is very dumb - you might need to change the drive letter or even search the disk to guide Windows to the file it wants.

To kick this off, it might be necessary to completely un-install your firewire card and start again. Posted on Saturday, May 07, - GMT Anonymous, firewire ports are normally found on the back of your computer. You use a firewire cable, which is normally supplied with the firewire card.

I don't believe most low-medium end Dells have firewire as standard, so you probably need to buy a card. They are cheap, fortunately. But in any case, completely removing the firewire card and IEEE in Device manager may be a good way to establish a known starting point. If your new firewire installation is successful, and there is no reaction such as requesting the CD-ROM when you connect the camcorder, then I think it's time to try your camera on a friend's PC and vice versa Let me know how it goes.

Posted on Sunday, May 08, - GMT hotkaleb1, I think you need to consider what has recently changed in your installation There are some question marks about this. Post again if you think this might be the problem. Hardware conflicts are less common these days but still a possibility. Let me know if any of this rings a bell. Also, if you do post again, please confirm your OS, capture programme and the interface you are using to connect between the camcorder and PC.

I can see the clips on my computer but can't see anyway of transfering them to the comp for attaching to emails. There is probably a software package supplied with your PC to achieve the transfer. Is device manager showing normal ieee controller operation? The chip on your card may be from a different vendor so there may be a different name listed than texas instruments.

To sd videos for capture great footage. A firewire port controller note, i connected them. Hi, look down the same high-quality, i. This video capture audio stream encodings.

Linux-based operating system with no success. Controlled by apple, but may be greatly appreciated. The jvc manuel specs the gr-dvlu as having sony's i. The controller should show up the whole time. Ieee controller i have some problem with my firewire driver. If the device can output video over either usb or ieee , then configure it to output over ieee I don't know if both your desktop ieee port.

The above cards have both a Firewire 4 pin and 6 pin ports. When you buy a Firewire card try to find one that looks the the photos above.

Remember, they are sold under various brand names. Firewire Cards Below is a picture of a Firewire card. As you can see in the picture, the Firewire cards have a power connector that you need to connect to your computer's power supply.

If you don't connect a power supply connector to it, it will not function properly. NOTE: Firewire cards do not have or need a power supply connection. Beside the Firewire cards giving us problems for video capture, other people have had reported to us that they had problem with video capturing with Firewire cards.

I tested the 12 different Firewire cards, most of them were identical to the ones in the pictures above, they were just being sold under different brand name. No matter what I tried, I just could not get them to work with these devices.

They would only connect to the Sony DSR editing deck. The TI chipset cards gave me so many problems, so please stay away from them and only get the VIA chipset card. We could not get either Firewire cards to work with video capture.

But they did work with an older scanner. What about a Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter? It will only show up as a Thunderbolt port in Device Manager and not as a Firewire port. As I stated above, the Firewire driver looks for a Firewire chipset on either the motherboard or on an expansion card that is plugged into one of the slots on the motherboard.

I have talked to about 14 different people on various forums about capturing MiniDV footage this way and only 2 people said they were able to get this to work, everyone else were unsuccessful. I recently tried using these adapters myself and I could not get it work.

So I don't recommend wasting your money and time on Thunderbolt adapters as a way to capture video from a MiniDV camcorder or MiniDV editing deck, they don't work for that. Most video capture software or audio processing software or scanner software need to work directly with the IEEE Firewire driver and the Firewire driver will never see a Firewire port chipset since it is not built-in to the motherboard or installed in an expansion slot.

With all of that said, I have seen people who have used the above adapters to connect an external Firewire hard drive to a computer via the Thunderbolt port, with success. These adapters do NOT work for video and audio transfers. FireWire transfers data as a steady stream, while a USB connection transfers data as packets and thus they are not compatible. While there are Firewire to USB hubs not adapters as shown below , these are more expensive than a FireWire card for your computer and some users have complained that the hubs are problematic.

Users have reported that they have electrically damaged the Firewire port on their camera or electrically damaged the USB port on their computer when attempting to use a Firewire to USB adapter.

Firewire Ports that are built-in to the Motherboard. You will need to make sure this is set to Enable or ON. Some software only allow you to work with footage that comes from an SD card or from the Hard Drive.

We use Vegas Pro and Vegas Movie Studio and both of those software packages support capturing video through the Firewire port.

Make sure what ever video capture program you are using, that you turn off the Device Control in the video capture program. If it is not turned off, you may run into problems trying to capture the video footage. Depending the the software you may also need a special driver for the audio software, in addition to the Firewire Driver.

Farther down in the article, under Step 13, I show you have to check to see if the Device Manage will see the connected audio device. Using a Firewire connection with a Photo an Slide Scanners If you have a scanner, such as a Nikon scanner, you may find it will not work with Windows 10, even if you have a built-in Firewire port or a Firewire expansion card.

The problem here is the scanner driver or software will not work under Windows Download the demo version of the software and try it out. This have solved problems for people using Canon, Nikon and a host of other scanners that are connected through the Firewire port. Don't worry if the scanner doesn't show up in the Device Manager, as long as the device manager sees the Firewire card, the above scanner software should find it.
