I haven't captured video from my camcorder in about a month, and i just tried to do it now, but when I turn on the camcorder, i get an error saying:

" Creation of video preview failed. Please check the device connection and make sure that the device is not being used by another application or user."

- and no other application is running that could be using the camcorder

I'm using firewire, and it is a Panasonic Camcorder. TIA if you can get this komputer working again.
