With the HVR-Z1U, you should be using the Easy Setup HDV-1080i60.
Re: Sony HVR-Z1U 64 bit Drivers? By Stephen Mann on Dec 15, 2008 at 11:48:50 pm. Sony Creative Software does not make the cameras, nor the Vaio computers or Televisions or the Sony movies or music CD’s. They are all separate companies owned by the same corporate conglomerate. I think that the customer service person was not clear in the reply. FX9 enhanced V2.0 firmware to add 16-bit RAW output, Eye AF, Full-frame 4K 60p/50p recording, and more. Looking for support on Sony Electronics products? Find firmware updates, software and driver downloads.

Try removing the firewire hub and plugging the camera directly into the iMac (you may have to temporarily reset your capture scratch disk if you are using the external drive as your capture scratch location) and see if FCP sees the camera.
If that does not work, download Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion (free) :
Preference Manager will let you archive your current preferences before you trash them, so you can restore them later, if you choose.
Use it to trash your preferences, then try to connect again.
If that does not help, post back.

Regular Crew Location: Zürich, Switzerland | Let’s try to solve your problem step by step As English is not my mother tongue, make allowance for wrong word selection As you have all kinds of system, we use as example the same type as mine. State of the art PC, with XP-PRO SP2 / or SP3 1. With both devices off (Camera and PC) connect them with fire wire cable 2. Set camera to on, in VCR mode 3. Start PC You should get a message “found new device” and after some time (!!) a message is shown “device is ready to use now” In device manager you should see near the top ='Audio-/Video/Game-Controller', there you should see something like 'AV/C……Device' (don’t know the English word) When you open this, you should see under Detail, something like 'AVC Sony&HDV-VCR&typ' Now download from this page HDVSplitt, Paviko's website HDV-Spitt works outside of all NLE-Programs and is also very good for testing the connectivity of your camcorder. When you open HDVSplitt, you will see in the first window right at the top “Connected camcorder”, if you see in this field your camcorder, you know, PC and camcorder know each other and the problem will be with your editing software. At least with HDVSplitt you can capture now your HDV tapes and import these files later in your editing program. Can you report your findings till now? Is it ok so far? We might have to try something else. volki |
