Anyone use the Sony GV-HD700 deck for their HD mini-Dv tapes?

Hi, I've been filming on a Canon XH-A1 in HD and I can't get my tapes to play in the deck. It recognizes the timecode, it will fastforward and rewind just fine, I've got the setting set to HD, the iLink Conversion is off, and I've been through every menu option I can find, but when I hit play I get an error message that says "Change to correct tape format."
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Incidentally, I can capture the footage into FCP through my camera, but obviously the whole point of getting the deck is to not wear out my camera's playheads...
thanks much!
-Sarah

Hmmm....
So before when I was shooting in SD, I thought I was shooting in 30F then too, and the deck plays back that just fine - am I missing a difference in SD vs HD types of 30F?
I shoot documentary-style projects for artists, organic farmers, sustainable energy efforts... do you think there would be a noticeable negative change if I just switched to shooting 60i so I could use the deck for capture and playback when I'm in the field? I'm also intermixing footage I shoot with the Canon 5D mark II SLR, any input on that combo?
Thanks so much, sorry if I'm asking dumb questions, I'm trying to figure all of this out but it's a bit overwhelming...

  • Anyone use the Sony MDRV-700 DJ headphones with nano?

    Anyone use these with the nano? Did they work well?
    http://www.warhogsaudioshop.com/ProductImages/Product%20Pictures/Sony%20Pro-Audi o/MDRV700DJ.jpg
    I like big headphones, and want to hear from folks that have used them with their nano.
    Thanks for your contributions in advance,
    -D.R.

    I use Sony MDR-V6 headphones with the nano, and they sound great. These are the same as Sony Pro MDR-7506 (although often the MDR-V6 can be found for less money). These are actually great headphones for sound from nearly any gear (especially at the price), and they provide good isolation.
    I don't know how the V-700 headphones work, but I'd stay away from them under the fear that they would be similar to the V-600s which are awful.
    You will look ridiculous walking around in MDR-V6 cans unless you are in a recording studio. I hide in my office or at home with them and walk around with either buds (which unfortunately don't work with my ear shape very well - no bass) or Koss Sporta Pro (muddy and too much bass, but somehow musical and adequate for the task if exercising or walking about with ambient noise, plus you can set them around your neck when you aren't using them so they don't take pocket/bag space.)

  • Has anyone used the IC Interactive scripting editor for the Webclient ?

    We originally received the 'Loading %0' message when loading the editor via the IC_MANAGER business role. This was overcome by updating Java (See note 717921).
    However, the editor now seesm to working, I can see two examples as standard, but when I click on them I do not see anything.  I've ifnored this issue and have started to create my own question and answers in preparation for a script.
    However, I have hit a few quirky things while using editor. Am I alone in this, or is this just the way it is.
    I'm using the latest version of CRM 7.
    If anyone's used this script editor I would dearly like to hear from you, especially in avoiding any upcoming nasties that I may hit.
    A perfect example of this kind of problem is in how you create 'Answers'. If I highlight the answer section and click on the 'Create' button I have the options to create the following: Field, Objective script, Question, Action, Button and script, of which none of these are what I want. I can however create a question with an answer section, but of course when it comes to dragging a answer in to the answer box I can't do this as I can't create any answers. Am I missing something?.
    With regards
    Jason

    Hi,
    We are facing similar kind of problem in our scenario "Loading 0%". We have crm7.0, IE6 and JRE 1.5.0 version.
    Kindly help us, which version of JRE do we need to use?
    we reffered notes: 1105843, 717921. However this did not help us.
    Kindly help us.
    Thanks!

  • Can I wipe off the OS on a IMAC and use the IMAC as a monitor for a MAC Mini

    I have an IMAC that can not be upgraded from Snow Leopard because it is too old. I was wondering if there is a way to maybe wipe off the OS and use the machine as a monitor attached to a new  MAC mini so I could have mountain lion?

    No; some iMac models support video in, in which case wiping the OS off won't help, but all of those can be upgraded to newer OSes. The other iMac models can only be used as a monitor through Virtual Network Computing, which requires a separate monitor to set up, and that the iMac has an OS installed.

  • Does anyone use the Asus G751JY-DH72X laptop for editing HD video in Premiere Pro

    I wish to purchase a laptop for field use. The Asus G751JY-DH72X laptop seems to have great specs for HD editing in Premiere Pro (CC 2014).  I wonder if anyone has tried this unit and: 1) Does Mercury Hardware (GPU) acceleration work and 2) Does a Thunderbird array connected to the Thunderbird port work?

    The Asus G751JY-DH72X appears to be the perfect Adobe CC mobile workstation spec wise. I am thinking of purchasing this myself. Adorama seems to have the best prices on the 512SSD, 1TB HHD model. According to the list of Adobe CC supported cards the Nividia GTX980M is officially on that list. I don't know about the array...but everything else is legit. Looking at the specs and add all the reviews...this is an excellent choice for an Adobe Animator/Editor.

  • Has anyone used the QuickUSB module (Bitswise Systems) to interface to a USB Camera via IMAQ for USB?

    Has anyone used the QuickUSB module made by Bitwise Systems with LabVIEW for image acquisition.   I have a USB camera and I'm trying to use the IMAQ for USB controls to no avail.   Any input is appreciated. 

    Are you using the NI-IMAQ for USB functions or are you calling the QuickUSB libraries from LabVIEW?  Unless the USB camera is DirectShow compliant, then it will not work with the NI-IMAQ for USB driver.  You can use the Code Interface Node in LabVIEW to call external dll's, and it looks like from QuickUSB's website that is the best way to go.  Hope this helps.

  • Does anyone have the Sony HDR-XR500V video camera??

    Does anyone have the Sony HDR-XR500V video camera??
    Is it compatible with a G5 PowerPC? Any pros? or cons? Please advice.

    I'd stay away from Sony unless you are buying pro stuff, but even then...
    Sony software is only compatible with windows & their mac support is pretty much non-existant.
    plus, hard drive camcorders are a terrible idea! if you start having problems, poof, there goes the hours of footage. Even the Sony cams that use flash cards are a bad choice - you usually have to buy their magic gate cards.
    I'd stick with Panasonic or Canon cameras that are SDHC+Internal or just SDHC. AT least this way the cards can be replaced, you can expand the memory, & it's SD - much cheaper to buy than the magic gate cards.
    check out camcorderinfo.com for more info & reviews.
    Now, to import your footage, you will need an app like Voltaic as importing AVCHD with Apple's video apps is only supported on Intel machines. You can still edit with iMovie or Final Cut - the versions that support HD, but the initial import from the camera will have to be done with the 3rd party utility.

  • Has anyone used reMIDI as a plug-in for GarageBand. I downloaded a trial version of reMIDI, which enables MIDI instruments to be strummed or arpegiated, but can't get it to work in Garageband.  How do I set it up?

    Has anyone used reMIDI as a plug-in for Garageband ('08)? The program allows MIDI instruments to be strummed or arpegiated. I have a trial version, but can't get it to work in Garageband. Wonder how to set it up.
    Thanks, Doctor Mark

    Port Forwarding.....or Port Mapping....as Apple calls it is a difficult and complex configuration method for most users. Because there are so many variables involved in this type of setup, it is not possible to provide a step by step guide that will work for everyone with all devices.
    It is possible that a setup guide exists for the the WD drive and AirPort Extreme, but you will have to go looking for it on the Internet. Even if you find one, it may not be tailored to your specific situation or needs.
    Sometimes, you can do everything right....at least according to someone's article or "how to" guide, and things still will not work correctly.
    In situations like this, when you really don't know what to do, you need to enlist the aid of an IT pro, who will know what to do based on your particular products and unique circumstances. Sometimes....they won't be able to get things working either due to particular circumstances.
    But, before you do this, I would strongly recommend that you use a Static IP address for your Internet connection with your ISP. If you do not have this now, contact them to ask them if they offer this type of connection. Expect to pay more for this type of service, of course.

  • "Using the Filter HUD to Search for Referenced Files" (and "Locate Referenced Files")

    I am trying to follow the Help Documentation item "Using the Filter HUD to Search for Referenced Master" (not sure if there is a way to post a URL to this) and I am not seeing what it is telling me to do.
    I am going to Edit > Find and it is telling me to "Click the Filter HUD button beside the search field in the Browser". Is this referring to a browser in the Aperture UI or is this in the Filter HUD display? I am not finding this.
    Also, it saying that in the Filter HUD I should "choose File Status from the Add Filter pop-up menu, and select the 'File Status' checkbox." and I am not seeing this either. Does anyone know where this is at?
    Lastly, I see that there is a command called File > Locate Referenced Files and when I run this I get a "No Referenced Files in the /current/ selection. I have realized that I don't quite understand whether I am running this search for a specific Project and/or whether I have to make a specific selection in the left hand pane when I run a FILTER HUD or whether this automatically defaults to search the whole database. Does it matter what I have selected in the current Browser View when I run either of these commands?
    Thanks for any help in my getting this working better for me.

    1.  Just copy and paste the URL from the on-line User Manual.  Very helpful.  Are you on this page?
    2.  From the above-linked page:
    Show the Filter HUD by doing one of the following:
    Choose Edit > Find (or press Command-F).
    Click the Filter HUD button beside the search field in the Browser.
    The instructions specify ONE of the following.  Your question indicates to me that you are trying to do both.
    3.  The User Manual has used the wrong term here.  It should say "Choose 'File Status' from the 'Add RULE' pop-up menu."
    4.  The command -- like all commands? -- works on the currently selected Images.  On the same page in the User Manual it says:
    You can select a group of images in the Browser and Aperture can show a list of the referenced images within the selection, including information about where the masters are located. {Emphasis mine.}
    5.  The Aperture workspace is highly configurable.  I don't know what you mean by "the left-hand pane".  Of what?
    6.  Yes.  Of course it matters.  At some point in the 80's when the GUI became standard computers standardized on the "Noun→Verb" syntax:  Select object(s), select command(s).
    7.  Not sure what the second command to which your refer is.

  • Has anyone used the mackeeper software?

    Has anyone used the mackeeper software?

    Short answer:  I don't recommend it, but it's not "a scam" or malware, per se.  If you use it, you may have some real performance issues.
    Me:  I was an actual MacKeeper user (paid version) for about two years.  What follows is my experience and conclusions.  I am not a paid reviewer, nor tech professional.  I am an educator with about 15 years of experience using Macs.  I am what most people would call a "prosumer," in that I know a good deal about my systerm, but am not a techie, anti-utility software zealot, etc.  I have no affiliation with Zeobit (manufacturer of MacKeeper) nor any of its competitors.
    I bought MacKeeper in 2011, and then upgraded last year.  I used it to remove junk files and duplicates, and experimented with the anti-virus software.  I didn't use most of the other features.
    The problem:  I am running a 2009 15" Macbook Pro 2.8GHZ Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, 512GB HDD.  Over the past year, it has been having major performance issues.  Slowdowns, hangups, applications quitting and more were all becoming the norm.  I deleted duplicate files and ran MacKeeper a few times a month.  I also ran permissions repairs regularly (disk utility).  I looked for the cause of the slowdowns everywhere, from too many user accounts being open, to resource hogs.  I decided that MacKeeper's Anti-Virus software was just taking up too much RAM and CPU, so I disabled it.  I continued experiencing slowdowns and started monitoring my available RAM with a freeware app called Memory Clean.  It often reported that I had less than 500MB available, even with very light usage, application wise.  After "cleaning" memory, I could get my available RAM to about 1.5GB, max.  I struggled with these issues for a year or more, and was about ready to concede defeat and buy a new machine.  I figured my MBP was over four years old, and perhaps running Mountain Lion and normal wear/tear were just too much.
    This morning, I noticed that the biggest resource hog on my system was a process called "MacKeeper Helper." The process relaunches even when it is forced to quit.  It was consuming over 100MB of RAM and up to 99 percent of my CPU at times!  I also noticed a process called "anti-virus" that also could not be quit, and was consuming over 100MB of RAM itself.  I started researching how to kill these processes, and was introduced the the Great Online MacKeeper Controversy.  Here is what I learned:
    Some in the Mac community have pure hatred for this product (and some hate all like it).
    There were numerous user reports of it slowing down systems
    Zeobit seemed to be guilty of questionable ethics, particularly in its advertising.
    There was no way to stop MacKeeper Helper and Anti-Virus processes from running with deleting the entire application.
    I wasn't the only one annoyed by MacKeeper's system pop-ups, trying to sell me something I already bought.
    The software got good professional reviews, even from well-respected publications (e.g. MacWorld)
    It is often confused with Mac Defender, which WAS malware.  They two are not associated.
    The Decision:  After researching ways of fully uninstalling MacKeeper (and considering whether or not I should), I decided to try the uninstall instructions from the manufacturer.  It said that it would remove ALL traces of the application.  I also didn't want to get into too much Terminal work and manually deleting things, as some users suggested doing.  I followed the process (close app, drag to trash, enter password, click "uninstall").  I then ran a permissions repair and restarted.
    The Results:  I have been MacKeeper-free for about an hour as I write this. Put simply, my problems appear to be completely solved. MacKeeper Helper and Anti-Virus are gone.  Available RAM is now up to 2.75GB.  I have experienced no slowdowns or app crashes.  Even bootup appeared to be considerably faster.  Launching iPhoto with thousands of images now takes a few seconds instead of minutes.  Everything feels faster.  It's like I have my Mac back!  I was ready to admit defeat and dish out another $2500+ that I didn't have.  I now think that won't be necessary!
    What Should Yo Do? You'll find a lot of controversy out there between professional reviews, ethically dubious paid reviews, Zeobit's own defense through public statements, and Mac users themselves.  Some users like it, and swear up and down they are real people.  Others are extremely angry and hate the product with the passion of 1,000 burning suns.   All I can do is tell you my experience and make the following statement:
    The bottom line is that I would not install MacKeeper/buy MacKeeper on my Mac.  After investigating my own system's problems (which made iit nearly unusable) and concluding that MacKeeper might be the issue, I uninstalled it. Magically, all my issues went away.  So...I report, you decide.  Best of luck.
