JVC HRDVS3U Mini-DV/S-VHS Combo, Silver
JVC HR-DVS3U not recommended for Sony Camcorder users
There appears to be a comptatibility issue between the Sony MiniDV format and the JVC miniDV format.  This is coming directly from the technicans at JVC.  I purchased this JVC HR-DVS3U unit so I could edit the miniDV tapes from my Sony TRV-20 camcorder.  But when I play a tape (which has been recorded on my Sony camcorder) on the JVC deck through the firewire output to either my computer or back to my camcorder, the JVC unit displays a error code U:01 and the video from the firewire output is all distorted.
