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.
