cant get DV to play out of konaSD, only freeze frames…
NOt sure why but for some reason all of the sudden I cant get my DV timeleine to play out of my KonaSD card to my NTSC monitor, it refreshes to the current frame when I stop playback, but when I hit play, it stays on the last frame until I stop play again at which point it refreshes the frame…I had it working before, any ideas?

Sounds like you’re not in “Fit to Window” on your Canvas window.

Check that under View>External Video>all frames is checked instead of single frames.

Had this problem on an HD test where I captured 1080i uncompressed, then transcoded the media file to DVCPro HD, then imported the new file. Same problem as you described occurred. However, if I changed the Easy Setup to the native 1080i DVCPro setting, it played fine. [don’t ask why I did thid crazy test – I just wanted to see the difference in quality and file size]
I’m guessing that the K2’s hardware activates certain functions related to un-compressing video for display only when the appropriate setup is selected rather than autodetecting the kind of footage you are playing.
I would say that if your DV footage is not playing, try using the native DV NTSC setup just to get it to play, then try other settings. Also, check the playback settings in the timeline and put it to Highest quality. If no luck, do a Panther Cache Cleaner zap at MEdium Cleaning for all caches.

Actually, that’s a great point, change your Easy Setup to DV-NTSC and it should work fine. I find that anytime I get the K2 not playing back footage correctly, I default back to an Easy Setup and it generally cures the issue.
Good point weevie.
