I did tests just yesterday using the Miranda and the Sony HDV deck.
Frame accuracy was very good.
I got one frame slippage between the LTC output of the Miranda box and the
RS422 timecode.
I fully expect it to suffer the same problem with clinet tapes and in camera
stop starts causing timecode jumps so expect HDV conforms to suffer the same
progressive slippage during a tape.
