Hi- I've connected my camcorder to my imac using firewire to capture in final cut express many times before. I'm trying again and now it says that no video device is selected and I must do this in the capture presets but as far as I can tell final cut express only has those easy set ups and not a audio/ visual settings area. There is no communication with the camera at all. I tried to capture through imovie but the only option it gives me is through the imac's built in camera. I have captured using a camera through imovie previously as well. It's as if there is an overriding setting on the mac to use the built in camera or ignore the firewire input but again I can't find any setting that may have done this.

Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated!!
