How do you white balance a DVX?

Using the white card method(I think that's the only real method actually), how do you correct the white balance with a DVX?
 
Generally with a grey card on film you have the card take up 50%-75% of the frame and make sure the light is evenly distributed on the card so that it has flat lighting with no glare.

I assume the method is the same for DV, you can probably have it take up the entire frame with DV though.
 
Thanks guys. I needed that. I took a good look at Barry's book and manual, and I finally got it to work. I thought that AWB should naturally mean "auto white balance", but I finally figured it out.

Otherwise, I would have been screwed with all the different lighting sources at the wedding I shot today, which went amazingly well btw. :grin:
