If I record to P2 cards can I use a larger screen on the G4 than what FCP gives me to view what I'm recording? If so can you give me step by step instructions here.

I did get the computer and camera talking to each other, it was my error as I thought.

The size of the Log and capture window, is taken from the current size of the Canvas window. So to increase the size of the Video image in log and capture:
- Close the log and capture window.
- Open a sequence.
- Increase the size of the Canvas window.
- Open the Log and capture window

I had no idea I could do that... I always hated capping with DV and having the small capture window. Too bad I have P2 now and won't be capturing anymore. This is almost as strange as the time I learned that Apple F12 let me play full screen playback...

Great tip... I feel like I should have known that. Now only if apple could get the 17" Macbook out the door.
