Jack,

To run Firewire video under XP, you need to set the videoMethod parameter in the RevInitializeVideoGrabber function to "DirectX". I don't believe that is listed in the documentation, but it is the correct setting. Make sure you have DirectX installed.

So the first call needs to be something like:

revInitializeVideoGrabber the short name of this stack, "DirectX",the rect of this stack

Hope that helps.

I'm running Windows XP, the trial of Rev 2.7, Quicktime 7.0.3, an attached Canon camera with Firewire and CANNOT get any video to preview or record. In fact, when switching the radio buttons to Quicktime and choosing video settings Rev crashes. (Canon works with MovieMaker on this computer.)

This is a deal-breaker in terms of whether or not I move from an older version of Metacard to Rev. Metacard can't do this and was excited to find that Rev was supposed to. Any help, suggestions or information will be very much appreciated.

Thanks to all in advance,
