If you carry on down that thread, someone states"
"After reading your email, I was tempted to try again with my GR-D72, and I
finally got Pass Through to work! However, this worked with Ulead Video
capture, not the ImageMaker program that came with the camera. Leaving the
tape in or out didn't seem to matter, and I didn't have to do anything
special with Play or Record, just set the camera to Play mode and AV menu
setting to In."
If I'm uncertain about a device's capabilities and the staff can't help me
(often the case!), when I buy it, I make it very simple and ask "I'm buying
this for reason X and if it doesn't do X, can I return it for a full refund
since you cannot tell me if it does do X or not?"
I've never had a return refused.
