I haven't found an answer to this anywhere so I'm hoping someone can tell me.


Do the Mits DVHS decks play SVHS (SVHS analog original, not HD taped on SVHS) tapes out the 1394 connections. i.e. does is digitize the SVHS video and audio and play it out the 1394 port?


Thanks,

No.


I have a single d-vhs tape on which I taped an analog OTA program for 30 mins and then a HDTV digital ota program for one hour. When I tried to view the first 30 mins I had a blank screen if I used the IEEE 1394 digital input. When I switched the tv to s-vhs vcr input the program was visible. When I kept running the tape past the end of the analog program I got a message on the screen that the tape had digital content and when I switched to digital input the program was visible.

The Mits D-VHS VCRs don't have any analog to digital encoders or decoders.
