Have you preblacked a tape? do that first, then use edit to tape to edit to that using an assemble edit. Match the TC on the sequence to that.
Don’t set it to record external TC. You’re not feeding it through the TC in port so it won’t work don’t think.

Thank you Mr Jerry,

the sony HVR M25U go near the Tc poitn but run around it and after some try stop it!! -
Alessandro- Sometimes a TC drop/non-drop issue can cause this problem. Make sure your settings in FCP and the deck are compatible.

All of the Sony HDV decks timecode is defaulted to Auto Timecode. You’ll have to get in the menu and set the deck to DF or NDF, whatever time base you are wanting.

Could be the problem alright… the OP should be using drop frame on both sides of the equation. Sequence and record settings I’ll bet. or both sides non drop. If indeed we’re talking 2997 video here. I have a feeling it’s not…
Is the original sequence 50i? If so, this should just “work” if the tape is blacked from an actual blacked signal… you can do this from FCP.
