    [Jennifer Jones] “As for the SDI, yes both items are connected – And, again, I assume you can change the routing through the AJA Control panel, (without unplugging the cables), but maybe I’m wrong?”

    Yes, all the io putputs are active all the time. Try pulling the output SDI of the DIgibeta deck, or check you EE mode and make sure it’s not in EE.

    [Jennifer Jones] “Another colleague suggested we have a 75 OHM BNC terminator on the deck”

    Where? You have no external reference so there’s nothing to terminate.

    Got it. There’s a serial a/v out on the digibeta that is open (and, was suggested by the folks at AJA to terminate (as well) when I talked to them this morning).

    I understand Bob’s frustration. We all fight the battles of having the recent college grad with a laptop and FCP express calling himself a “professional editor”, and not knowing a lick about any of the broadcast stuff. If I could, I’d give you a hug, Bob.

    With all my respect Bob, if you are working since 1.989 with CMX, I’m working with SONY, AMPEX and GV NLEs since 1.985.
    A recorded need to be in sync only with the signal that is recording. This is one of the reasons why is needed a pre-roll. Recorders have also “Ref-In” to be used as players.
    And Jenny if you need an external source of syncs, just plug the “Composite video-out’ of any camera.

    I just wanted to let you guys know, my Gen10 came today, I hooked it up and tried several layoffs – There was perfect sync -It corrected the problem! Thanks again for all your help, I appreciate it immensely.
