dubbing from Firestore to DV tape
I posted this question also on the Firestore COW:
I tried and I tried but I can’t seem to find how to dub the files from my Firestore version 3 to DV. I recorded it in DVCPRO HD in my HVX 200 and now I want mo make a DV tape in the camera. I can play out the files to the LCD display and the monitor, but when I put the camera in dubbing mode, it doesn’t see the Firestore anymoreKool En De Anderen

One problem is that in order for the camera to recognize the Firestore HD files, you must be in the P2 mode. As far as I can tell, the miniDV tape will only operate in the TAPE mode – and it will only record in DV resolution… so you would not be able to transfer the HD resolution to miniDV tape.
If you need to make a miniDV copy of the footage, you might try loading it onto a computer with firewire, convert the file to standard def. – then run the firewire into your camera and record to tape using the firewire input with the camera in TAPE mode.
Hope this helps,

You can’t do it. Dubbing/downconverting only works from a P2 source, not from the FS-100.

Well at least I know now that I don’t have to try anymore. Thanx
