Anybody have the JVC SR-VS30U Mini-DV/SVHS deck?

I can get data from tapes to Final Cut via the firewire connection, but how do I go the other way? How can I play the timeline and have it record onto mini-dv or SVHS vis the firewire? There must be a setting on the deck I'm not seeing? Thanks!
(I dont have a manual)

Shut everything down
As suggested, run your FW cable from the puter to the front of the deck.
Turn the deck on. Make sure the DV button is lighted. Use the remote control to select Input F-1 (its the Channel + key)
Fire up the Mac and launch FCE. Make sure you have View>Video Out>Apple Firewire (NTSC or PAL) device set.
That should give you output from the Viewer or Timeline into the deck. When using the DV deck you should be able to play/record or use the Print to Tape function
If you want to play/record to the S-VHS side: On the deck, make sure Dub is selected for DV ... with the arrow pointing towards the VHS side. Now you should be able to play from the Timeline and Rec on the VHS side

  • Importing to imac from JVC SR-VC30U Combo min DV/SVHS deck by Firewire

    One step DVD would not work, but one should be able to play either min DV tape or SVHS tape in the $826 JVC SR-VC30U Combo mini DV/SVHS Deck and, via its Firewire, capture a DV video file into the imac, correct? (How is that done--does image capture recognize that a Firewire input is present, and give you options to start/stop capture?)Now, the combo unit output most likely is a 4 pin Firewire (IEEE 1394), and I think one can get a 4to6 pin adapter cord, as the imac is 6 pin Firewire, right?
    Good source for such a connector?
    I'll be mastering video to 90/60 min. min-dv tapes recorded in both a camcorder and the SR-VC30U, and would rather use the deck rather than my camcorder as the playback unit to save wear on the camcorder. I also have numerous video tapes, VHS and SVHS, that I like to get into my imac as dv. I can also back up the min-DV mastering of events with a SVHS tape, and import that SVHS footage if the min-DV recording fails. Might even be a way to get better footage from DVDs, by looping through playback, than trying to rip from the recorded DVD.
    One might even be able to loop through video and capture dv to the imac--checking with JVC about that and related questions--will report back...
    Regards, Dale

    JVC never answered my email questions. iapps confirmed that my basic assumptions were reasonable, however. So I ordered the items.
    I have received and worked with the JVC SR-VC30U Combo DV/SVHS deck and it appears to be a versatile unit. You can dub from one format to the other, record input to both formats, play either format and have DV/Firewire output, and loop through input to digitize analog video for Firewire input into the imac. Haven't tried recording DV in to both formats yet.
    Looping through playback from a recorded DVD, capturing, imovie, idvd, to burned DVD looked much better than ripping the original DVD with Cinematize and doing the same.
    You have to control the deck manually--imovie will not control the functions (play, rewind, stop, etc) as you have with most DV camcorders, of course.
    I've also found the Panasonic PV-GS500 to be compatible with imovie. You have to have it in playback mode, not PC mode. Also, there was some flicker in footage ran through imovie/idvd to burned DVD, particularly in transitions were there was movement in the video at time of transition. Some of that may have been related to stabilization so I've turned that off to see if it helps.

  • My time capsule cannot connect to my system and I get an error msg -6753. I also get a clicking noise when I start up. I've tried every thing from re setting, un plugging and re setting but nothing works. Anybody have the same problem ?

    A "clicking noise" is often a sign that a hard drive is malfunctioning. Suggest that you power down the device and take it to an Apple store to have them take a look, or contact Customer Service at Apple for instructions.

  • Does anybody have the new verizon wireless n routers

    just wondering if anybody received the new n routers yet?

    Which ones?
    The rev. F routers have started to appear.  They're nothing to get excited about.  The wireless-N is not 802.11n-2009 compliant.
    Nor do they have gigabit ports.
    The rev. G routers which are 802.11n-2009 compliant and have gigabit ports are not in circulation yet.

    How do I delete vertical color stripes on my destop screen. There are 6 of them in pink, red and green. Can't believe I'm having problems with my wonderful iMac!

    Unfortunately, they aren't something to be "deleted." Might be a hardware/graphics chip problem. You should run the Hardware Test in Extended. Might have to run it several times to pick up an error.
