Anyone know, or know of someone who knows any way possible to get an Iomega Buz to work in a Quicksilver G4?

Doesn't it just work? I used to have a Buz in my Beige G3, and I took the footage over to my Quicksilver G4 and it opens and plays the Buz-compressed files just fine. I think the Buz card stored its files in a standard format, like Motion JPEG A.

I had it in a Blue & White G3, but when I put the card in a DP800 G4, it doesn't seem to want to boot.

I didn't take the card over -- just the footage. If you want to put new analog video in to your Quicksilver, I think you're best off getting an Analog-Firewire DV encoder (like the Dazzle device, Sony's Media Converter, or the Analog-DV conversion built into a bunch of DV camcorders).
