I would agree with that.

Don't give up. I've never even opened MM2. Maybe it is the s/w. Try some 'real' software as Mike suggested. Premiere Elements has recieved good write-ups and the demo version will certainly let you find your feet with the subject and more importantly - works!

As to VCR mode. Those are my words. Your camera may call it something else. If it's labelled playback mode then that would be the one.

Sounds like the s/w to me from everything you've said. Anyone had any luck using MM2 to capture min DV over firewire? Any quirks or pitfalls to be aware of?
