[videoblogging] Mini DV tape to FW 800...new Macs

Apple is discontinuing FW 400 from new Macbook and MacBook Pros. (Pro will have FW 800). Will this be a problem getting mini DV footage into the Pro via 800. I played around with a FW adapter once and couldn't get the camera to mount on the finder. If this is a problem, I may have to quick get

Oh and the camera/deck isn't supposed to mount unless you're in some sort of card/drive mode for uploading photos. You can check to see if it's being recognized using applemeneaboutthismacmoreinfo. On Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 12:45 PM, Brook Hinton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I capture to FW800 from

If blip didn't allow it, they'd be a censor - and who'd trust them then? Better to allow McCain/any one else you don't agree with to air their views and let the people decide what's good and what's not. (says librarian david) David King davidleeking.com - blog davidleeking.com/etc - videoblog

I agree; web censorship is not a good thing and if McCain wants to use blip, by all means, they should be able to. As with all videos on the web: you dont like it, dont watch it. And by all means, dont click on their ads! On Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 1:21 PM, David King [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Michael, There are lots of Obama related videos on blip.tv (and YouTube) for that matter, just as there are lots of McCain related videos on blip.tv (and YouTube), for me, the issue is not whether one party or another is on the site, the question is, do they support and allow videos from
