DVL-Digest 821 - Postings: Index DV with Cassette Memory [CM] Florries in Europe DV with Cassette Memory [CM] - "Perry" Arie posted: >All I get is standard DV cassettes marked ME but this does not function with the special capabilities attributed to CM. Can anyone enlighten me about the availability of these cassettes and are they priced at a deterrent level and thus rarely stocked? or is there another reason for it?< ME just stands for Metal Evaporated, and is the same for all DV tapes. If you can see the actual cassette shell, the chip versions have metal connectors in the four rectangular holes on the front edge of the shell. The non chip versions are empty. I suspect lack of demand makes the chip versions difficult to find and expensive, but there are no other problems with them. I suggest you find a tape specialist and buy in bulk, it's much cheaper that way anyway. The chip can give other benefits such as storing the position of the end of the last recording.

Unfortunately I had a clearout only last week and threw out all the brochures!
