[MacDV] Re: Video monitor playback?

[Mike Cameron]

Hope I understand your problem.

My guess would be a setting for the JVC vcr.  I have an earlier unit 
and when going from the computer to the tape-monitor I need to set 
the JVC to expect input from the front (F-1) or back (L-1) firewire 
port.  If this is set wrong, I do not get anything to either the tape 
or monitor.
