Thanks. The record inhibit switch was turned on for some reason on the deck. I feel like a ding-dong now. ^_^
I have no idea how it happened but now it’s working fine. I never mess with the settings on the deck but someone must have done it!
Thanks again!

I used Compressor to convert to NTSC. I have done it this way before with footage off a digibeta and they looked great and the duration stayed the same. I am still pretty new at doing this but it looks like the duration changed on these videos…

Yeah I forgot to mention it’s the PAL version. I was looking through the manual and it says that it is not compatible with all DV tapes but it will eject the tapes it’s not compatible with. The numbers on the tapes don’t match the ones in the manual. The deck is not ejecting the tapes but it plays them all scrambled. I can’t imagine there is something wrong with all 7 tapes that I am trying to capture or at least view. The manual said that if you see “NO EDIT” light up on the deck that the tapes are not recordable but they are playable. I am seeing “NO EDIT” on the front of the deck, but I only get the scrambled pixels both on my sony monitor and through FCP on the Mac monitor instead of seeing the footage and I don’t get any audio.
Could it be that although the tapes are DV that they are not compaitble with this deck? I don’t know how they were shot and have no way of finding out…If someone can confirm that the tapes are not compatible please let me know, if not I guess they could be damaged? Or maybe I am doing something wrong? I dont’ think so because I am able to look at footage I have on another Mini DV tape.
Thanks for the responses, I hope someone can help.

The button on the tape is not pushed in. It is a brand new tape. I am using a DVW-M2000P Sony Digital Betacam VTR…what sort of switch on the deck are you talking about?

Go to Edit>Preferences>Display & Cursors
In there you can change the settings for how your cursor displays.

OK i got it to work…the Kona card was loose and need to be jiggled in place!! But now I have another issue, I don’t hear any audio!

The Kona deck control and deck remote are connected to the switcher. Should I disconnect the digibeta from the switcher? Then I have the deck SDI output connected to the Kona SDI input. When I check the Kona Control Panel it has a red line going from the SDI In to the RGBA and a blue line going to the SDI out…could it be a setting in the Kona Control Panel? BTW…you rock.

OK I have the easy setup set how I want it. What about for the Kona Control Panel? DO I need to change any settings there?
Thanks again for your feedback, I know I probably sound really dumb.
