recording to p2 cards via composite in
is it possible to record a video signal via RCA and record onto P2 cards? i mean, there is a video ‘in/out…’ but i can’t figure out how to record, let alone see the picture? is there something i’m missing? anyone have any ideas?

Record from what source?
All that has worked in sending a FW feed from FCP on a Mac with the HVX200 in the MCR mode.

Yes you can input composite video into the HVX and record onto the cards. You’ll be doing so in standard-def only, not high-def (RCA/composite video is inherently standard-def). You could choose DV, DVCPRO, or DVCPRO50. You have to be in MCR mode, not CAMERA mode. Turn off the thumbnails (press the audio dub/thumbnail button) and you should see the video image playing on the HVX’s LCD. Then just press the gray and red REC buttons on top of the cam to record that incoming video stream onto your cards.

Get the most from your DVX camera. The DVX Book and DVX DVD are now available on ebay and at Amazon (https://www.fiftv.com/db) -
