yes, edit to tape question

Hello,
for a client I had to do something "old fashioned" with my HVX: editing a DV-film back to DV-tape through firewire.
I used FCP, had the right settings , and the "now editing to tape" came up, playing back the material on the computer and the HVX started recording. Still, I ended up with a tape that had only gotten a lot of black and no audio. I might have the tape recorder settings wrong somewhere but I can't find it in the manual.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

I wouldn't use the HVX for Edit To Tape, you'd need a real deck that has this as a real capability.

Why not edit in a Timeline and then just Print To Video? Just axing.

But no, most cameras won't do the edit to tape process. I know a few decks that couldn't do it. You need, as far as I'm aware, a really nice deck that will handle this.
 
I hooked up everything from scratch, rebooted : and voila it worked perfectly!
I will hardly ever use this feature, will mostly make dvd's, so buying a deck is not an option; thanks for the reply though!
