Why not make PT the "Master" ?
I don't like PT to be chasing anything...

Iīve talked about this situation, and the Sync I/O (or PT) is not reliable.
If you are using a SR-4 you have exactly the desirable feel, that PT is handled as Master and syncing in the shortest amount of time. Unfortunatly thereīs only one room equipped with a SR-4, other rooms (where I work) are Avant or MT, Fairlight + minimum HD1 up to HD3 equipped. The name of Sync I/O is a bit misleading, it doesnīt have real synchronizer-capability thatīs needed, when you are working with three different video machine formats every day. Thatīs the reason why I sometimes (when i/we get my/our PT sync drama) use the SSL or Fairlight synchronizer and use PT in remote mode when tracking back to machine, thats still in this situation ways faster than using PT as Master. Other TV stations in Germany ( yes we are talking together) have the same problem, and our problem that everyone is seeing (except Digi) is defnitly by none of us house-sync related.
