Glad to know I'm not alone but this isn't helping me much. We've got a M$
developers license here so the IT guys are married to Windows. I'll try
exporting the DV stream or try and find some other way of doing this. I wish
they hadn't lost the original tapes which just compounds the problem. If it
would just export a large AVI file I'd be happy.
