heres a work around that will work if you need to, record the mini to mini dv tape, or just play it through a mini dv camera. if thats no t possible for you, you could get an analog card and capture in fcp, you would be surprised how often professionals do this. les s <indee77 at verizon.net> wrote: Hi, My daughter and her classmates shot a school project on a Sony camcorder which records to DVD-R (mini). I was asked to edit the project. However when I loaded the DVD in my G4 Sawtooth with Superdrive, the DVD-r was not recognised. I have Final Cut Pro2 and OS9 as well as OSX 10.3.9 and imovie. But first, I have to import the footage into either one of these apps. Any ideas?
