I am trying with 2 MiniDV cameras, Panasonic NV GS400, and a Sony DCR PC101, to record output from a spy/button camera. A spy cam is just a lens and ccd that sends output thru an AV cable to any video equipment.

So spycam sends the video output to the camera's AV IN. But the MiniDV cameras are not showing any image. When I attach the spy cam to a television using the same AV connector the camera broadcast is seen clearly.

The MiniDV cameras are able to record from other sourcs, like a DVD player or another MiniDV camera fine using AV connectors. But they are not receiving any input from the spycam..

I know this sounds confusing, but if anyone has any idea how to solve this problem please let me know!
