I bought a JVC GZ-HD7 HD video camera a while back and have had a lot of trouble getting it working properly on my Mac.
Here's my set up:
Mac (new)
Quicktime Pro (with MPEG-2 codec?)
Final Cut Pro
The Camera is a hard drive unit and produces MPEG-2 files with a proprietary JVC header (.TOD). Following the instructions, I use Quicktime Pro to convert the source files into AIC format. This all works and I can then edit stuff.
However, here's the problem... When viewing media, any movement of the camera causes vertical lines to blur on the Mac. For example, a rope or the side of a house (weather board especially) goes completely nuts.
When I plug the camera directly into my HD TV, it's perfect.
I've tried bashing both the camera and the Mac but this doesn't work.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Finn.
