is there something I need to do. I’ve tried many things but no success.
Thanks.Isaac Orcino

Make sure the iLink is not set to downconvert

Shane’s Stock Answer #25 – HDV external Monitor Viewing
To view HDV on an external monitor you are going to need to purchase a capture card, like the ones Matrox, Decklink or AJA offer. They will both play out HDV in real time, and they both downconvert the image so that you can play it on a standard def monitor.
HDV cannot be played out of FCP via Firewire because it’s Long GOP structure is too taxing on your processors to spare the system resources needed to drive an external monitor.
The best option you have is the Matrox MXO…$1000. Connects via DVI and can send a signal to an Apple Cinema Display for true broadcast HD monitoring.
