    How to configure video input?

    Hi.

    First, let me tell you I'm wearing my "Hi, I'm new here" name tag even if you can't see it.

    I'm running the latest build on a brand new MacPro (GeForce 8800, if that matters). I use the term "running" loosely as I'm just learning it, but I'm able to control everything from a grandMA, add files to the library, blah blah blah. Everything seems as it ought to be.

    EXCEPT that I can't figure out how to configure a live input, and God knows I've been trying for hours.

    I have an Imaging Source firewire grabber.

    I have been able to verify that it is capturing video by using a simple app called video viewer, and also by firing up my old media server app. Both of these apps are getting the video stream.

    Catalyst, however, will not find or recognize the device as a source. When I go to the "inputs" window in the HUD, there are no options to choose from (no valid sources). I've tried tweaking the options in the preferences window but to no avail.

    Am I supposed to put drivers in certain place for Catalyst to look? I am skeptical of this as the other apps find the source with the driver simply in the default location (/library/quicktime).

    But like I said, I'm new here.

    Thanks in advance. Try to contain your snickering.
