Q11. Why am I getting the error message "Vencmpeg did not start"?
The VDR-3000 needs to have a signal to synchronize to before it records.
This error message is usually given when a user enables recording on the
VDR-3000 before playing back source material. When recording from
DV(IEEE/1394) you must play your source before pressing record on the
VDR-3000. Running 10 seconds of black should allow for a smooth recording
entry.

Q12. Why isn't the DV input working?
When connecting to your unit make sure that you have switched the
selector switch in the back of the VDR-3000 to "DV". Once the DV
selector switch is changed to DV, a red led will appear on the front
panel of the VDR-3000. Play your source video and watch to see
that the video is appearing on your monitor.

Q13. Why doesn't the S-video input work?
If you want to record from an S-video input source the selector button
on the remote control must be pressed when the unit is powered up.
On the lower right corner of the remote control there is a button marked
"I/P" this is the button that must be pressed. The default input for video
is composite (RCA type connectors) if you don't change the input the
S-video input will roll and the video signal will not pass through.
