Using the Hollywood DV-Bridge

With a Macintosh

Getting Started

Minimum System Requirements

The system requirements will vary depending on the editing software you are using. The following minimum requirements should be met for DV editing in general.

Processor: 300 MHz or faster

Operating system: Mac OS 9.0.4, including OS X (Note that OS X does not support 1394 when running applications in Classic mode, so OS X support is currently limited to OS X native programs.)

RAM: 64 MB minimum, at least 128 MB recommended

Monitor: 800 x 600 pixel resolution

Sound: Standard Macintosh sound system

DV interface: FireWire card or port, with appropriate drivers installed and functioning properly

Note: Apple iMovie software requires a built-in FireWire. According to Apple’s specifica- tions, iMovie is not compatible with add-on 1394 adapters. However, most other DV-capa- ble software is compatible with add-on cards.
