If you want to add closed-caption data as used in the USA, the program for it is CCaption by Leapfrog: http://www.ccaption.com That's the only way I know of to do it right now. Cheers, Adam Wilt a DV FAQ: http://www.adamwilt.com/DV.html DV Tape in DSR 2000 - Adam Wilt I have a DV tape (standard size, not mini) and recorded in Sony WV-D10000 > deck through firewire from Premiere 5.1c. It plays on other decks (DSR40, > DSR20,DSR30 and Panasonic 2000 version..) just fine (with picture and > audio)... then I pop the tape in the Sony DSR2000 deck and the only came > out was the picture.. there was no audio signals at all... Sounds like a malfunctioning DSR-2000 to me. Just to be on the safe side, was this a tape recorded in LP mode? If so, try recording the tape in SP mode. LP's interchange is problematic at best.

It means that, if your devices use the current copper wire cables and connectors (and most consumer devices will, because compatibility is important), they'll plug into your current Mac, but only run at 400 Mbits/sec. If the devices use optical fiber, you'll need a 1394b-compatible copper-to-fiber transcoder.

Timecode has to be related to the video, so you would need to genlock this as well.
