    I have a Sony HVR-M15U HDV/DV deck connected via Firewire to my PowerMac G5 w/FCP 6 and a monitor connected to the deck via S-Video. When I use the Print to Video option in an HDV project, I am able to record to tape, which means that the computer is sending a signal through the deck, but right now I am working with a DV project and I cannot view what I am working on on the monitor, this also brings up audio issues, I cannot hear what I am working on (I am running a line from my headphone jack to my speakers for now). I have tried switching just about every setting on the deck and the computer and have gotten nowhere. Any suggestions?

    Is the Deck set up to record DV? Is the front of the deck set up to record from the DV input?

    As your Easy Setup set to DV and your External video is on?
