Problem viewing my footage from FS

I just purchased the fs-100 and it's recognizing the camera and recording and all that good stuff but when I try and view the footage on the hvx I see no clips in the viewer. I have the camera set to vcr mode. Any suggestions?
thanks
 
Mixedclimber,
I don't think it will show the clips in the viewer. What you have to do is learn to control your FireStore. If you press play it will play the clip in the HVX LCD (when set to VCR) but it will not show you the clips and it will not show the video through the Component output of the camera. (seems like panasonic didn't want to introduce a cheap way to use the camera as a P2 VCR so they turned off this function)
Other than carrying the extra unit and powering it, this is one of the few drawbacks of the FS100.
