Hi there,
I have a Canopus advc-100, that gives black screen (with a weird line, see attachement) if you feed it analog input.
The result is the same if I use it as passthrough (analogue in, and get the analogue again from the 3 ports on the back)
However, if you set it to digital in, and feed it digital signal on any of the DV i/o ports, and capture the analogue output it works perfectly fine.
So something is wrong with the input part of this unit. Any idea what it could possibly be?
Thanks in advance
P.S: Disclaimer before LS yells at me :
Canopus DV boxes are not really recommended as they perform lossy compression, specially if you are doing NTSC. they are "ok" for PAL. (read more in other forum posts)
