i have a DVX100-A and I'm getting the flashing red 'X' meaning that the tapeheads need cleaning. Is it true that the footage can drop frames when importing because the heads are dirty?

is there a way to reset the DVX to factory settings?

Until recently when I import in FCP all my footage would come in in one continuous clip. Now it breaks everytime the pause button was pressed instead just importing everything at once, is this a FCP setting or a DVX setting, I think it's a DVX setting. What do I need to set the DVX to to stop this?

hi, i'm new to using the DVX and i was experimenting with 24p. The picture quality is great, but sometimes it's very grainy. Anyone have any tricks or suggestions on the best way to reduce the grain? I know lighting can be a problem, but there must be a way to reduce the grain even in dimly lit...
