    Hi and thanks to all the experts who are so helpful.
    I am using FCP 6 on a Mac Pro Quad core intel, and am working on a project in HDV.
    The deck I’m using is SONY HVR 10MU.
    I have the setup at HDV and captured the footage in HDV.
    Several issues (as you may expect)
    The audio monitor in the capture window did not show any audi, however it was captured ok.
    Is that normal?

    When playing back the footage it will not show on on an external video device and the HDV options in the view menu are greyed out.
    What do I need to do, or get (AJA IO express or MAtrox MXO2) in order for this to work?
    I just got a new SONY LMD 2030W LCD monitor. But of course it won’t show any of the HDV either.
    Any suggestions that won’t break the bank?
    Thanks.

    You need an I/O card to view FCP on an external monitor with pretty much all codecs.

    Some of the Matrox or Decklink options will be cheapest.
