Printing to Video on HDV tape?

HI all!

I'm outputting some TV shows edited in Hi-Def ProRes422... We imported all the footage from HDV through the KONA Aja via component. I've already output a ProRes422 QT as well as compressed the final show to DVD... but my boss wants a "hi def" copy on tape as a backup.

Our deck only has the Video, S-Video and HDV/DV firewire inputs - so is the only way to do this to render my final sequence to HDV, then print to video via HDV over firewire?

I feel like our workflow is a bit janky... are we gaining anything by importing the HDV through the KONA? Would our resolution be the same if I just imported using the FCP HDV format?

Any help would be great! Thanks!

I have exported HDV through firewire onto a miniDV tape using my camera... Works fine. Edit to tape wont work with HDV but print to video works fine....

You might have to set sequence in and outs before you select print to video, I cant remember exactly though....
