I just tried pulling out the firewire cable whilst in the software, when it
was all distorted, plugged it back in while the software was on and now
the
pictures clear, very strange?

Well done for sorting your prob and posting details,
I'd just hazzard a guess that perhaps the actual firewire
plugs may not have been fully seated in their sockets?
Or maybe a loose or damaged connection/solder joint
in either your cams 4pin socket or your PC's firewire
card? Fingers crossed all remains functional.

I need some help! plzzz. Using Windows XP Home, computer fitted with
Firewire, Ethernet, M-Audio Sound Card. When trying to capture or play
video
from my DV camcorder into any video editing software on my computer, it
comes
out distorted. It did'nt use to do this, all I have done to my computer
since
then is install an Ethenet card and more memory. I did something the
other
day which cured it but I don't know what it was and I can't get it back
again. Does anybody think it's something to do with ethernet/firewire
conflict? I say that, because when I have my ethernet cable disconnected,
the
camcorder won't recognize. It's not the camcorder, its not a specific
program, so Im presuming it's something to do with the connection which
is
giving me distorted play back.

Any ideas?
