Canon 30i footage not being read by sony HVR V1U

Hello out there,
So I have a whack of tapes to import, shot using the Canon XLH1- I'm not sure if they were recorded at 30F or 60i
However, I can't seem to find the correct 'tape format' on the HVR V1U to play them back.
Anyone run into this problem?
I wanted to bring in the footage using the Sony but I can't even play back the tapes.
Any suggestions?
Thanks so much,
Deedee

I believe the incompatibility between Canon and Sony may be a tracking issue and here's why. A couple of weeks ago I was able to capture HDV footage shot on a client's XL-H1, using my Sony HVR V1U. Last year that same client had unsuccessfully tried to capture using an HVR-M10U VTR. We wound up using the H1 to capture. Later in the year I borrowed his H1 to shoot some pickups in Standard Definition DV. When I tried to playback on my DSR-1500 there were picture and sound errors. The same tape played in a DSR-11 exhibited even more errors. I was able to playback and capture from on the H1 with no problems. I suggested that he send the H1 back to Canon for warranty repair. He did and the problem was in either the tape or head drum speed, I can't remember which. It seems quite reasonable that other H1's may exhibit the same recording issue. I suggest you try to record in DV and see if the V1U or some other DV deck will play it back.

  • DV devise not being read by computer

    I'm baffled by my issue.
    Two cameras (Optura 20, DVX100) not being read by my eMac.
    1 Sony cam reads fine.
    Only recently, after 3 years of my Optura being used as a deck on my eMac, decides it doesn't want to communicate with my eMac, and another G5 tower.
    -tried disconnecting all other fire wire and usb cords
    -tried different fire wire cords
    -tried logging in as a different user
    -tried different inputs
    I'm affriad there's a softwhere instalation i made on my comp that is interfearing with reading these DV devises.
    I tried trashing previous Quick Time pkg files in my Library/Recipts...nothing.
    Even my System Profiler has a hard time trying to read the signal when my cameras are plugged in. It won't even read an external HD if the camera is plugged in.
    If there are any other suggestions out there...
    I'M STUMPPED!!
    Once I figured it was a software issue, the same issue occured when I tried plugging into a different G5 tower.
    I'm trying to think if settings on the cameras are blocking/causing the issue. Still can't make sense of it all.
    Do you keep "DV Out" off or on?
    Thank you KINDLY in advance.

  • Ipod not being read and freezing

    When I plug my ipod into my computer, it goes to "do not disconnect" but not the flashing do not disconnect. Its frozen. My computer wont read it. So I unplug it and its frozen. I know how to restart it but that doesnt help me from when it freezes again once I hook it up. How do I stop it from freezing and not being read. Thanks

    i am having a similar problem with my 4g 20G
    it freezes when i try to update. i thought maybe it was the latest version of itunes i recently installed but i reverted back to an old updater version and itunes 6 and while i was able to get 300 songs on the ipod without freezing, when i tried to put the rest of my library on there it freezes. i've even tried to put as little as 15 songs on at a time and that still freezes the ipod.
    i have a mac powerbook with macos 10.2

  • XML file not being read by Accordion Demo

    I had this working last week and it was a beautiful thing. I
    subsequently added many more product items to the products.xml file
    and resent it, now the products.xml file is not being read by the
    index page. I have read all the posts and added all the suggested
    fixes -
    added {useCache: false} to result in var dsProductFeatures =
    new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("products.xml", "products/product[name =
    '{dsProducts::name}']/features/feature",{useCache: false})
    added <cfheader name="Cache-Control" value= "no-cache">
    <cfheader name="Expires" value="0">
    <cfheader name="Pragma" value="no-cache"> to header
    added var d = new Date();
    var cToday = d.getSeconds();
    var spryURL = "
    http://localhost:8500/SpryMe/Sample1/employees.xml?cacheBuster="
    + cToday; to header
    but my xml file is not being read. The script is running
    because the little fields on the right are moving.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi,
    What's happening if you open the xml page (employees.xml)
    directly in browser. Are you able to see all the records? Is the
    XML valid?
    Regards,
    Dragos.
    PS: do you have a public URL where we can see that?

    Hey Stan1958,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPod nano and iTunes. Based on your symptoms, you may find the following resources helpful in resolving this issue:
    Windows
    iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes
    iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
    iTunes reports that "iTunes cannot recognize this iPod at this time"
    Thanks,

  • My 3rd gen ipod nano is not being read by itunes when I plug it into my mac laptop.  It says "no name" on the mac screen, I lost all my music on the ipod itself.

    My 3rd gen iPod nano is not being read by my iTunes on my mac.  When going to sync, the mac screen says "no name". Also I believe I lost all the music on the iPod.  When turned on it says "Welcome" as if it is new.  I tried to copy all my music into the "no name" folder and then sync.  The iPod said it was "syncing".

    So does iTunes see the iPod or not?  I couldn't quite understand from your post as you said it wasn't, but then said that the iPod was syncing...

    I have a lot of grief with this version of Windows Media Player.
    It is very buggy and frustrating to use.
    I have my Music library on a QNAP NAS, which is as reliable as they come.
    System notifications make it not save changes.  It also does not do a good job of interpreting albums and artists from folders.  Changes to track names are not saved, nor are tracks moved to other albums, renamed albums, changes to genre, artist
    or date.  It separates and merges albums/tracks without sense or reason.  Some changes I've made up to 4 times, then closed WMP and re-started my machine to check if it has/hasn't saved the changes.  Often it has not.
    This is the first time I've used WMP in this capacity, and I do not recommend it.
    New service pack please.

  • When plugging in an iPad in Apple Configurator, it is not being read under USB Connected so I can't update it.  Any ideas on how to get the system to read the iPad?

    When plugging in an iPad in Apple Configurator, it is not being read under USB Connected so I can't update it.  The iPhoto window opens up and reads the photos on the iPad, so it is connecting to the computer.  Earlier today I wasn't having any problems.  I have shut down the iPad and the computer and started over, but that didn't help.  Any ideas on how to get the system to read the iPad so I can update the apps on it?

    Hi, is the problem just to update your apps on your iPad? Here is what you should check. Is the iTunes on your computer updated to the latest version? Does your iPad needs to be updated? Do you have enough storage on your iPad to do the update? On your device is your iCloud back up checked?
    Go to Settings - iCloud - Backup/Storage - see if its checked, and try unchecking it before connecting it to the computer.
    Please let me know if you need any further assistance.
