I did everything step by step. Please I need Help.

FS100 does not respond and I can't record on P2 mode HD

does The P2 cards need to be inserted in order to work with the FS100.

@pepewatson hi pepe.

the p2 cards do not need to be inserted.

are you connected to the correct firewire port on the FS100?

are your settings correct for the iee394 setting on the hvx200?

[jessemillerman]

P2 cards are good if you have a LOOOOONG shoot and you want to be continually dumping footage while the camera is still recording. for instance, if you have a 100GB firestore, and no cards, you are NOT able to record for the time period it takes while you're dumping.

on the other hand, if you have (2) 8GB p2 cards, you can fill one up, and dump it to a laptop while filling up the second, and keep switching like this, never having down time

Without doin any research, I came into a lot of money - just kidding, but I may be able to buy one of these things. Will it work with a Canon XH-A1? If not, is there a product that does the same thing for the Canon's. How come I can't just use a small hardrive, put it into an external HD case, with a firewire port on it, and then power it some how, and let it rock?

[jessemillerman]

the FSC (not the FS-100) is the right one for your Canon XH-A1

that, or the new Firestore FS-5. this is the best one lately.

Does this work with the AG-HPX170?

[jessemillerman]

yes

i have HVX204, can i use " Focus FireStore FS-100" for my camera?

[DetroitRockCityMusic]

@sonne5 if you have a Firestore you just shoot till it's full.

[DetroitRockCityMusic]

@pepewatson no it does not I don't own a P2 card but use the FS-100 all the time

[DetroitRockCityMusic]

@pepewatson no it does not. you might have a bad firewire or bad firwire port on the camera both things are common.
