I use Dartfish for video analysis of my customers (I focus on sports bio-mechanics). I have used it with a PC with no issues (apart from the obvious!) and wanted to take the system to my MacBook Pro It installs great but when I try to connect my camcorder via Firewire this is no recognition Reading this forum, I believe firewire is not recognized in Parallels? If so - is there a solution at all Many thanks!
Hello, Unfortunately, FireWire is not supported by Parallels now. It is in scope for future versions. It is possible to connect firewire external drives [mass storage] by means of Parallels Shared folders.
Alicia, Does your new update allow this and has anyone ever gotten Dartifsh to work in Parrallels? Peter
Same Here. I sold a brand new MacPro 2K+ for DartFish because he was sick and tired of dealing with XP/Vista's day to day usage bugs, freezes, viruses etc. I screwed up and overlooked firewire. When they say Run Windows on your Mac, they should say "Parallels Desktop.. Run Windows on Mac but just no firewire....NEVER! I still remember when they advertised that you could run XP apps at full speed. Now with Desktop V4.0 you can run your apps 30% faster. Does that mean that I will get 130%. They should but a big warning that we should make sure all features needed are supported in parallels. Now they mention that they will support Intel Vt-d... So is that a yes or a no?
Dartfish -> A Possible Solution ! I need Dartfish users help. I need to know if Dartfish can use streaming video as input? If so what format does it have to be? This is what I am investigating. Capture with OS X and instantly stream it to Parallels via Quicktime Streaming server and make Dartfish use this live stream as input for analysis. Any help is appreciated.
