DVCPROHD SDI EDIT TO TAPE

[Herb Sevush]

DeeCee –

The first thing to try would be sending a reference signal to the deck. This should go from your SDI card to the Reference In on the back of the 1200A. If this doesn’t help I’d suggest cleaning the heads. I have had all sorts of problems laying back to the 1200A via firewire but I’ve never had an issue with laying back via HD SDI that wasn’t cured by cleaning the heads on the deck. The fact that you can play back field tapes does not mean that the heads aren’t dirty enough to screw up a recording.
