Anyone doing this with any success? I have a customer who shoots on a GY-HD250 and uses the BR-HD50 deck fine. However, he has customers who want to bring him Sony HDV tapes and wants to know if the tapes he shoots in his 250 will play back in any of the Sony decks.
My gut feeling is the since the GOP stream is different that they will not play together, however I have heard that there are some decks that will play back JVC material as long as they are in a certain frame rate and it will only play out the component output, not the digital.
Can anybody confirm this? And if so, which frame rates work and which don't?

I don't think the Sony and JVC HDV are not cross compatible. GOP is different, and the Sony is 1080i, JVC is 720p, with 1080i only from onboard converter.

Here is what I found:
The Sony HVRM35, HVRM25A, and HVRM15A can play back JVC 720 HDV tapes
at 30P, 24P and 25P. No other resolutions or frame rate including 60
are supported, firewire output is not supported. HVRM15 only
supports 30P.
