I am sure this unit might work for some people but i didn’t get any joy myself. I hooked the device up to my GL2 and recorded about an hour of footage – first thing I noticed is when I hit record with my GL2 with a tape in the deck, the citidisk hvd nothing – I had to manually hit the record button on the back – again a small issue that I figured was xitidisk which it was.

This is a bit confusing. I have 3 ADS pryo drives, same as the citidisk. Thanks Jon, This isn’t really a question at least not one that can be answered.
I told the company and they recommended a firmware upgrade and reformatting of the disk citidusk to try with the tape in. After recording I hooked up to my editing suite, copied the files to a local harddrive and brought them into premiere pro.
Packed inside this 10 ounce device is a GB shock-mounted laptop hard drive, a FireWire bus, and a rechargeable battery. PC or Mac Operating System: New to the fray is the Orange button, which gives you instant playback options. Log into your account. Maybe it’s the HDV model. Hsv your white balance correctly saves time and frustration when it comes time to edit and opens up artistic options in the field.
Forgot the power adapter? Why do we watch movies in widescreen? First thing I noticed is when I hit record on the GL2 the citidisk started working as its supposed to. In post, if I import the m2t file to Premiere Pro 1. It worked fine sometimes and at other time just dropped out whilst shooting in non tape mode.
I ictidisk customer support the owner and he gave me citifisk RMA and I sent it back and a few weeks later got a new one with the extended battery. Hi Jon, This may seem like a stupid question: With the second citidisk I got I started right away recording the internal battery switch did not break this time! I recorded about an hour, used the play back feature from the back of the citidisk very very lacking design and saw my clips.
The back of the box was drammeled open so I could reach the connectors and buttons and there was a velcro strap on the top to keep the battery in place.

So it does or doesn’t work with hdv? The time now is So here is my full fledged review of the Citidisk HDV; I recieved the gb model a little before christmas and I also ordered their extended battery which was OOS and didnt come in until early january. It was the latest. First let me start by saying the owner I think has been great communicating with, and quick to try to help although the language barrier makes it difficult for him to understand some of the problems some times Upon first using it there is a litle switch you need to turn on in the back using a pen tip or paper clip to turn on the internal battery – when I moved it to the on position, it snapped off – no big deal but pretty cheap if you ask me I record about an hour of footage no problem, sync to my computer, copy the footage down and begin placing them on the time line and then I notice there are random clips of just mosaic noise, and then with the clips that do work, every few of them has a weird humming noise in it which I never experience.

Or maybe I’m missing something. Second, the timecode is not transferred to the hard disk. Something was wrong with the file format – since the device is fat32 it break large files into “seamless” bdv file, approx 9 minutes each.
