Texas Steve,
Yes, I had the gear connected by the component outputs. I've never had a problem with the picture through the iscan (now just superb using SDI) although my screen can't accept native res. via DVI - a daft assumption of mine.

I can't say if the audio delay is different, but once I has resetting stuff after applying the SDI mods. I wanted to properly set up the lipsync.

If you have the same gear, connected using the smart link, try inserting a delay of video frames via the options in 'sources / advanced', as soon as you do the comms link disappears. You don't mention what you use down stream, I (and everyone else) have this problem using analogue outputs.

M are 'human' in that they can make mistakes, but once found they normally sort it out (this is the third software bug I personally have come across).

VirusKiller,
Whilst talking to M. I asked for a definition (in ms) of the 'Video frames' (50 / 60 hz ?) but didn't get a firm response. I will pursue next time I contact them, the main 568 designer is out on business until next week.

ncpl,
I'm still curious how you managed to apply 59ms delay in your set-up, do you have a 568 or G series?
