Thanks. I don’t have another suite I can go to at least immediately. IF someone finally solved the problem in the suite you were using I would love to hear the answer.

WE actually recorded on an HVRZ1U. THE downconverted and are capturing DV footage using the Down Convert feature. WE have changed the decks out so that has been eliminated as a source of teh error.

WE did try a new camera and deck and had the same problems. I’ll try the Firewire cable in just a moment.

I might add that there may be a program out there somewhere that might allow Flash files but I’m not aware of it.

Yes you will have to make a movie since PowerPoint will not run natively within FCP. Same thing for MacroMedia Flash Files. That does not apply to Flash video but I take it you are trying to go the other way.

Isn’t that what a copyright is for?

Also you could put this on a site that has limited access through password protection.

Yes Walter you are right. That delay is pretty annoying. But I just got tired of having heaphones on my head when capturing HDV.

There is a much simpler and cheaper solution to the problem. Use an inexpensive audio board to feed your speakers. You can still use firewire to connect your deck to your computer for audio and video capture connections. Instead of feeding the audio signal directly from your computer to your speakers, go directly to the audio board and then to the speakers. So now you will be coming out of the computer and going to the audio board and then to your speakers (if you are using powered speakers). Now use the audio from the audio/video connectors on the deck and connect that to two additional channels on the board. When you are capturing raise the faders on these channels and you should have audio from the deck playing through your speakers. Mackie, Behringer as well as other manufacturers make excellent small boards that will work well for this purpose. You can frequently score some of these boards cheaply on eBay as well.

Another option is to use a splitter on the speakers and connect that to your deck and to your computer. But you will not have any control over the volume of the signal coming from the deck.
