I was wondering if someone could direct me as to how to record SD through the S Video and composite audio inputs to the p2 card?

For the life of me, the manual simply does not address it.

If it does, I'd appreciate it if it could be pointed to in the manual.

Thanks
 
Just put the camera in MCR mode and turn the thumbnails off. You should see the image playing on the LCD; press the two VCR REC buttons (above the menu navigation buttons) and it'll record the incoming stream.
 
Thanks again Barry.

Unfortunately, it does not work.

Here's what I did.

Set the cam record mode to 480i/60 (also tried it at 480i/30 and 24).

Set it to DVCPro, DVCPro50 and DV.

Then attached s video cable and the composite video cable.

Went to DCR mode, then remove thumbnails.

Hit play on the SVHS deck and nothing.

Well, I'll be hornswaggled. I just tried it, and it doesn't work!

It works exactly that way when the switch is in TAPE mode, but in P2 mode it looks like it doesn't pass the analog signal through. Curious.

Well, you can still record through the s-video port, you'd just need to go to tape instead of card...
