    Turning off tape confirmation in batch capture

    This is a really minor issue.  It annoys me to no end when batch capturing.  After being prompted for a tape, I insert the tape, and another dialogue box comes up asking if this is the right tape, letting you choose "Correct" or "No."  I think this is really needless - what am I going to do, insert the wrong tape and only realize this after being prompted by the software? 

    So anyways, I want this turned off.  I just want the software to assume that I am not an idiot, and put in the right tape.  I know I had it set like this before, but can't for the life of me figure out how to achieve this setting again.  Haven't found an answer online or on the forums.  Thanks in advance!

    Do you have a multiple VTR environment?  Isn't the second question not a redundant question about the tape name, but which VTR the said tape is mounted in?

    A ha!  I still had a lingering profile from a Firewire deck I'd hooked up recently.  Deleted that from Deck Configuration and no more dumb question.  I still think that's sort of a useless "feature" even in a multi-deck setup, but then, I guess I'm just a deck monogamist.  Thanks!
