Hi,
I working with a MOTU V4HD, an HD camera (connected via HD component), and a mac computer (connected to the MOTU via firewire.
I have the camera hooked up to the V4HD and the V4HD hooked up to the computer and am trying to stream live video.
When I open a streaming utility such as livestream.com or ustream.tv flash recognizes the V4HD, "MOTU Video" as a video source but does not get any stream from it.
All preview screens stay blank.
I have tried changing all of the flash settings and have tried it in every browser (safari, chrome, firefox, etc.) but I still can't get it to stream.
Any help or suggestions would be extremely appreciated!
Is anyone else having similar problems?

Nick,
The V4HD specifically supports Final Cut Pro on the Mac. Currently, the V4HD does not support other video applications on the Mac.
If Final Cut Pro is installed, Quicktime Broadcaster does see video input from the V4HD. Apparently that happens because Quicktime Broadcaster uses the same components and drivers as FCP.
