Hi, Gene.  We're talking two different things here.  My other thread is about 
the webcam.  This is about my Sony camcorder.  I did quite a lot of video 
capture from it under FC4, converting to DVDs, but I still have quite a few 
tapes to convert, so I have to get this going again or revert to FC4.
