The following tips may help avoid some common archiving
problems:
Do
not attempt to archive material captured with Headroom as the Output
mode. Such material cannot be archived.
Check
the scan mode of Inferno and make it consistent with your VTR
and VCP settings. Use the F1 Scan mode in the Engineering menu.
You cannot create an archive on a VTR when the Scan Mode option
in the Engineering menu is set to F2.
Ensure
that you are using a non-drop-frame timecode tape. You cannot create
an archive on a drop-frame timecode tape.
With
an Ampex DCT D1 deck, the VTR cues to the wrong timecode (the next
ascending minute) when archiving. To work around this problem, select
the Manual Start option and enter the desired timecode.
Ensure
that you have version 3.1.2 (or later) of the DST driver to use
the DST tape drive with Inferno.
