play dv movie out firewire port

[favas]

hi..

i´m looking for some help.
i´m doing some sound arrangements for a movie and i would like to be able to see it in a video monitor.
i think i am doing everything ok. but the " play dv movie out firewire port " in the menu is not lit.
this is my connection :

computer - firewire port out - firewire port in media converter - video monitor

can someone give some help please.....

thankz

What kind of video converter are you using? You are set up correctly, so the only reason why I can think of that the "play dv movie out firewire port" is greyed out is if it is not a dv. If you import a quicktime movie, without converting it to dv, it will not work. If this is the problem, use quicktime to export the movie to dv (this may only be available in quicktime pro).

Hope that helps.
