I think the B&H warning is an answer to my annoying reclamation. They did not want to accept my BG-50. At least nobody will fall in the same error again.

Can he connect a TV or a VHS deck to firewire? How?
-
I forgot! He works with a Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G4, so he needs a Mac compatible card.

The reason for the panic is that I’ve already buy 2 Kona 2 cards but I do not have any Digital deck. I bought them because I would like to work with HD in the near future, but I’ll use UVW 1800 Betacam SP decks until the HD is available. If I decide to keep the Kona 2s what can I do to use them with the analog decks? Is it possible to do any arrange with the SDI converters from Aja (Models DC10A and DC10B)? If I get the 2 converters I guess I’ll have to make some arrangement throug a patch bay in order to capture video and audio from the Beta deck and to send it back once edited… Am I right?

I made exactly as you said and Eureka! It worked! It’s just that it worked with the Horita BG-50 turned off!!!
Amazing! It’s working with the BG-50 turned on also. Interesting… -
How can I use the Horita’s composite out? I mean: Do I have to change the video in switch of the UVW 1800 to “composite”? If I do that the iO’s signal disappears but I have numbers running in the deck’s screen… I hope B&H wants to accept the BGs back and change them with BSGs!
-
Sorry to bother you again, I have one more question:
Will the Horita BG-50 work as a stand alone black generator with a Kona LS or with a Kona 2?
Thanks

Bob,
Those are VERY BAD news!!! Somebody is going to kill me because I recommended him to buy this unit!
Doble bad, since I bought 2 of them.
Are you absolutelly sure? I mean, I’ve checked the features of both teh BG-50 and the BSG-50 and I’m still trying to find more differences than the S in the name! I do not want ot doubt you, but please, can you explain me why the BSG is good and why the BG is not?
Is there a way to feed a composite signal into the BG? If so, it will cause any loss of quality, I supose… -
OK. I’m still confused… I’m using a (brand new) Horita BG-50 black generator. The Horita’s VIDEO LOOP output is connected to the AJA iO LOOP input. I have a wire connected from the AJA iO Ref output to the Ref Video, the 75 ohm term switch on the Beta 1800 is ON and no terminator. I guess I have to buy one too… Or do I have to buy several terminators, one for each device (monitor, SVHS, DV VTR, etc)?
One more thing: when I switch the UVW 1800’s Video In to COMPOSITE I can see reference BUT the deck has to be switched to YRB in order to receibe any signal from the AJA. When it’s switched to YRB I have No Ref. What can I do?PS: Until a while ago I was using a DataVideo Bi-Directional Converter (YUV to DV & DV to YUV) with a composite sync. signal output, connected to the AJA iO Loop input. Actually the same connection mentioned above, no terminators, no wires to any other devices. It used to work just fine. It’s a sadness I cannot use it anymore
