If you have a HDV tape deck and a digibeta deck, just transfer it direct to tape

The highest quality output would be to connect the digibeta deck to the computer using a i/o card and lay it directly to the deck.

You'll lose a generation if you lay it back to HDV tape before the digibeta dub.

If you can't connect the deck directly then export an uncompressed file. Does your storage situation allow this? If not, then go with DNxHD.

yeah that's what I am trying to do now, I chose uncompressed avi, but somehow the exported avi file only has sound but no visual.
