I'm currently using Avid Xpress Pro 5.8 (has been a complete nightmare) and can't use my Canon GL2 as a deck for captures.

If I were to upgrade to Media Composer would I be able to capture from the GL2?  Anyone have personal experience with this?

Thanks,

rusty

In the past I've used similar cameras to capture with Xpress 5.7 without any problems. Try reconfiguring the deck or do a manual configuration.

Have tried this multiple times.  Any suggestions on deck settings that might work with the GL2?  I've gone through MANY of them without luck.

You should be able to do this.  I've used consumer canon cameras with Xpress Pro with no problems.  Can you provide more details?  What are your system specs?  What kind of problem are you having (lost video signal? tc errors? batch errors?)

We had it set up fine with Xpress Pro prior to migrating to Media Composer. The Xl2 setting works fine as well.
