Saving to DV tape. Sometimes works, often doesn't.

I've been using MM2 successfully for a while. I can input from DV
successfully, but lately, when I try to save to DV it'll work sometimes but
most often it doesn't. In the camera (JVC 510) window I get the DV-IN
"window" and the Play symbol comes up. When it records properly, the Play
symbol turns red and rotates and the REC indicator comes up. Most of the
time, however, the movie starts to play and the green Play symbol stays on.
Could this be a bad firewire or firewire card? Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello,

I would suggest that you power down and remove the firewire card and if
possible put it in a different PCI slot. If the problem persists consider
asking a friend to plug your camera into "Their" computer (use their firewire
setup not yours) if the problem occurs on their machine consider a faulty
connection in your camera.....Mostly its a game of eliminating possibilities
until you are left with just the one possibility (unlikely or otherwise)
