I am investigating setting up a live web streaming workflow using:
Sony HVR Z7U
Flash Media Encoder
Brightcove
Does anyone have any ideas on what I need to do to get the Flash Media Encoder application to recognize my Sony HVR Z7U over the firewire port?

Re: Sony HVR Z7U as WEB CAM
Try setting the camcorder to record in DV mode (REC FORMAT = DV), connect to your computer through Firewire, then record live without a tape. It should behave like a webcam, and probably be visible to Flash Media Encoder (according to the Device Compatibility Matrix).
But no HD, if that's what you're aiming at.
