By the way, for all of you that would like
to capture via the B&W built-in FireWire,
Strata VideoShop is compatible with
Quick Time 4.xx. I have a Cannon Elura
and using the Mac's built-in FireWire, have captured and
edited in VideoShop, without a single problem, not bad for $99.
So those of you looking for a FireWire based editor, compatible with
Quick Time 4.xx and no headaches, Strata VideoShop is the way to
go. I wish I could say the same for Premiere, and easier on your
wallet also. I have been very pleased with VideoShop. no crashes or
extension conflicts. Very easy to learn, great tutorials included.

Joe
