Was there ever any response to this issue?
I purchased the JVC SR-HD1500US in hopes of using it to archive live, in-house broadcasts of the games I produce. I have a Panasonic P2 deck with a firewire output that I connected to the JVC recorder, but the recorder won’t recognize the signal.
Is the Edirol/Roland unit the only one that will convert my HD/SDI signal to Firewire for this recorder, or is there a less expensive alternative?
