you get 8 minutes of video for 2 gigs. So i watch the counter and when it

Fine, except it is actually a little over 9 minutes of DV video per 2GB.

Any time you come out composite or Y/C, from the GL1 or any other bit of gear, the way the colour is encoded severely restricts its bandwidth and resolution. Thus 4:1:1 and 4:2:0 video looks fine. The only way to get analog colour with a broader bandwidth is to use component outputs, typically labeled Y,U,V or Y,Pr,Pb. If you feed wideband component into a high-resolution monitor, you can see the limitations of DV's low colour sampling rate directly, if you look closely, whereas it is much harder to notice this when looking at colour through the "thin pipe" of a Y/C or (worse) a composite connection.

> threaded". Try switching your device control from "Apple FireWire" to "Apple FireWire Basic". That *may* help. Also ensure that System is set to NTSC or PAL as needed, and that your capture settings specify DV as the input. > When I try hooking it up, via composite video or s-video, to my ATI > card, the same problem happens---no signal---though now, of course, > the computer can't even tell that it's looking for a JVC deck. Can you hook up those same outputs to a monitor, and see a picture? Cheers, Adam Wilt

I got an 'Initio' Ultra2 controller card which came with a free copy of
SoftRaid. Gives me a minimum of 20MB/s data rate with a couple of 7K
Ultra180 Quantums. You only need 3.7MB/s for DV, but I must admit that it
makes all previews in EditDV run much smoother.
