Captured video is dark
In the past I have had no problem capturing HDV video from my Canon HV20
video camera via Firewire using Vista Ultimate. The quality has always been excellent. I just tried capturing some video and the video is coming in much darker than the video that is displayed on the camera. I can play previously captured video and is looks fine on my monitor so it is not a video setting problem. I have tried capturing the video with Windows Movie Maker, Premiere Elements 4, Pinnacle Studio 12 and Nero 9. All them look the same. I recently installed updates for my video card driver (dual NVidia 8800 GTS's in SLI mode) and for DirectX. This appears to be a hardware/driver issue. Any suggestions for troubleshooting this issue? What controls how the video is captured over Firewire? Is there possibly a codec that has changed that would affect video capture? Each of these programs saves the captured video in a different format so I wouldn't expect in to be a specific codec, unless something is used by all of these programs. Could there be something wrong with the Firewire cable or port?

Captured video is dark
HI. I have the same problem with my Canon XH A1 camcorder. I can not capture
anything into my PC. I am running Vista 64 bits. The message I am getting is: The video file C/user/gunnar/horpestad/videos/testing 2008.m2v could not be opened. Anybody any idea?
