So I gather that capturing from the camcorder is a shaky situation. Any settings that might make it behave more like a deck?

This post on another forum resolved the issue:

Go to your A/V settings, device control tab. Select the current preset and change audio mapping to 2 channels. I think that will do it. The older beta decks don’t understand more than 2 audio channels.

I selected the analog audio inserts on the Digibeta and it worked. However I do believe you can have no inputs to a 75 and the 422 control will turn on video or audio inserts. All of our BVW 75 analog decks work with other systems i.e. Smoke, Flame, Xpri, Adrenaline and they also work with two other other Final Cut systems. The other two Final Cuts are on MAC G5’s and have different Decklink cards that work…a Decklink SP and Decklink Extreme. It is looking like an incompatibility of the Decklink HD Extreme to fully talk to BVW-75……

addendum to this problem: This system will control and do audio inserts on a Sony Digibeta(DVW-A500) but not an analog BVW-75. I thought that Sony 422 control was all the same??
