I bought a Dual 2GHz power mac g5 to support use of a Canopus 110 or 300, or similar hardware solution, to convert or capture analog video via firewire. I do not want to use a video camera type pass thru scheme to do this. Since then, I've read here, and on the Apple site, that some users find the Canopus firewire boxes don't work well with Mac os 10.4 (and bundled software.) A call to Canopus verified that they were aware of a problem, but there was no indication if, or when, the ADVC110 or 300 would play well with 10.4.3 via firewire.
As a self-employed developer, I'm reluctant to buy any more equipment or software until I know that it will work on the Mac "as advertised" without work arounds.
Helpful information from anyone will be much appreciated. Is the problem fixed? Will it be fixed? Is there another quality hardware box out there that will work reliably?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this.
