    I’ve tried on Tiger (which is what we have at work) and that’s where I’m having the problem. Didn’t give it a go on Leopard, but couldn’t open Sebsky tools on Tiger or Leopard…

    We’re getting a new deck I think, too much time wasted with this old one!

    The DSR-11 isn’t picking up a signal via firewire from any other source than FCP, that’s more my issue than anything. I know how to pre-role TC with a DSR-11 using various work arounds, but the Deck doesn’t seem to be picking up external time code at all, so all methods are futile are far as I can see. I’m looking for a hidden menu option or setting that I may have missed so that the Mac will communicate with the deck without having Final Cut involvement – which I know will not send my timecode to the deck.

    When DV IN TC is set to external, it just doesn’t seem to want to do anything with the timecode – not in DV mode anyway (as set on the front). If I move the switch over to video (just experimenting) the timecode will change.

    But if I’ve already tried to record content from SimpleVideo Out and it’s simply put a timecode of 00:00:00:00 on, then I seem to remember that if I printed to tape via Final Cut, the timecode still just stayed at 00:00:00:00 and does not increase.

    I reset the unit incase there was a rough menu setting somewhere, but this hasn’t solved the problem either. The deck just doesn’t seem to want to pick up external content at all. I tried using a PD-150 yesterday also and this didn’t work either.

    It seems to be the deck is the bain of all my issues…
