Hi, have made a change to my new hvx200 that records viewfinder info to recorded video, mistakenly, of course, but can't find my way back there

anyone know which menu pick/label that'd be?
or, barring that, can I set everything back to
'factory default'?

thanks

It won't actually overlay the data onto the video, any recorded information is kept in the subcode area. You probably changed the menu item for "camera data"; try going to the MCR mode and turn the thumbnails off, then bring up the menus and look through the "display setup" menu.
 
barry, am using a citidisk hd, at least until my firestore arrives, no p2's & no tape.
have download footage to a laptop & the OSD info is definitely there.
was perusing the manual & noticed a carefully worded mention of what I might have done on page 112, video out osd: 'bear in mind...'
thanks

Yeah, that's there too, forgot about that. The OSD is on during non-recording time, but with the CitiDisk you control recording externally, so the system wouldn't know to turn off the OSD.

Oops. That's really bad; looks like a standing recommendation would be that if you're going to use a CitiDisk or FireStore you should always always make sure that VIDEO OUT OSD is set to OFF.
 
Looks like it's only a problem if you have the switch set to "tape" mode. Try moving the switch to "p2" mode and you should never have the problem again, I think.
