Perhaps this question would be better placed in an editing forum? I am not familiar with avid so I can't elp there but make sure you have done the following.
Turn off Computer. Turn off Camera Plug in Firewire Turn on Computer Boot up Windows Turn on Camera Open Editing program. Select your timeline. Makesure DV is set to out (in editing program) Make sure camera is set to VCR Hit record on Camera (On VCR settings, not the VTR button) Record several seconds of black. Hit play on your DV timeline. Should play back on the camera too and record off of it. HOpe this helps |

Hi John,
The AV to DV setting is actually used for conversion of analogue to digital signal using the camera pass-through feature (such as connecting an analogue source like a VHS or older analague camcorder to the cams analogue input and converting it to digital ouput via firewire for your NLE to read) If you have a tape in your system and the cam is set to playback mode then most NLE's should print to the tape with no problem. -Jon

Thank you for your help Jon, Not too sure what I did but it now works, I went through the digital cut tool in Avid and it set the deck to record I think?? but it now works..... thank you. John
