Synchronization Hardware
Synchronization Peripheral
AVoption|V10 requires the Digidesign SYNC I/O
for use with Pro Tools|HD systems.
Synchronization Source
For accurate synchronization during capture
and playback, a common video reference is re-
quired:
• Black burst
• House Reference Synchronization source
• Local video source (such as the TBC video
output of the machine)
If you use the DV connection for a video
monitor, the DV device may not be synchro-
nized with playback.
When digitizing from a DV25 source, the
video monitor will not display the output.
The output is displayed on the computer
monitor in Media Station|V10 instead. The
video monitor will display the output when
digitizing from any other source.
