Can't record from Sony camera into Screenflow 10
Hey Guys,
Here are the stats:
Sony A7R4 connected via usb C cable
M1 MacBook Pro with Mac OS 12.1
Screenflow 10.0.4 (31881)
I installed the Sony Imaging Web Cam software. The camera works in other apps like Zoom, however, I can not get it to record in Screenflow. The Sony Imaging app appears as a camera, but there is no preview. When I record, nothing records (except my mic, video screens, etc.)
I've tried resetting permissions, running in Rosetta, etc. Nothing seems to work.
Please help! I'd love to use my Sony camera to record directly into Screenflow!

Any updates on that? It does work for non-sandboxed screencapture software and I have the non-sandboxed screenflow download. It's a big blocker to not be able to capture camera together with other inputs, and it can't be that big of a fix, given that most tools can capture it.

Michi Huber Sorry we're still investigating this one.

I am facing the same issue, read all the threads above, went through other threads too but nothing worked for me.
I am using:1. macbook pro 16" m1 max, Ventura 13.0.1
2. screenflow 10
3. Sony a7iii
*** camera works on Zoom and Google Meet, but not on screenflow as well as Quicktime.
screenflow recognizes the camera tho, but no preview nor recording.
Please release a fix to this.

Please download the free trial of our own webstore version which is ScreenFlow 10.0.8 and see if that works. If it does, you can ask for a crossgrade to our version.
Please do make sure you've updated to the current version of Sony's webcam driver as well.
It does seem Sony's most recent cameras no longer require the driver. The Sony FX30 and Sony 7RV seem to have the function built in.-
CraigS just downloaded free trial from webstore, then I replaced the existing screenflow with the newly downloaded version (because mac asks to replace or keep both).
doesn't work in Quicktime too.
also checked it is 10.0.8
I am using Image Capture WebCam from Sony like most other sony users.
Really stressful... :(

You must test with the webstore version due to Mac App Store sandboxing.
