Thanks for all the help guys. I contacted AJA and they recommended trashing the preferences (path listed below):

Go to Mac drive>Users>User name>Library>Preferences>Final Cut User Data folder. Trash the 3 FCP files OBJ, CACHE and PROOF.

Relaunch FCP and from the Choose window select the IOLA composite codec. Open Log and Capture.

This worked for me.

…It’s always a simple thing you forget to do. 🙂

We’ve actually never used the Composite Input. I guess I should contact AJA directly.

Hmm…

I definitely only have one FW device plugged in (the AJA ioLA.)

Also just to verify that something hadn’t hung up I checked System Profiler and the AJA is the only thing showing up on the FireWire Device Tree.

One other thing to note, which I neglected to mention and I know may be asked later, I have restarted the machine and reinstalled and updated the ProIO Control Panel.

Thanks.

Jeremy thanks for your help.

There is no way to select a passthrough mode but it appears that may be a default since I am seeing video on the monitor.

I have the Monitor hooked up to the ioLA composite output. Sorry if I wasn’t clear, that is what I was indicating by this:

“However, even though I am seeing signal on the monitor from the Composite Out on the AJA, the Control Panel is indicating no video on the Analog In.”

Again, thanks for your time.

Yeah the light comes on when a composite Easy Setup is chosen. It also comes on when I shutdown FCP and open the ProIO Control Panel and select “Composite.”

However, even though I am seeing signal on the monitor from the Composite Out on the AJA, the Control Panel is indicating no video on the Analog In.

The composite source is a VCR. I have also tried it with a DVD player and our Sony DSR-11 DVCAM Deck. Thanks for your help.
