Hi David,

I was praying to have a miracle way around it. I’ll follow the pros and next time will master with DVCProHD or HDCam.

Many thanks!

Hi Jerry,

Sorry, I meant Sony!

I have made no change and still really takes the full 5 hours each time I press Print to Video. Do you know if there’s any settings I should check/change?

Thank you!
