I used to transfer MII component to the JVC Digital S with no particular problem. The JVC equipment is "economy" grade, and as i remember it warns against using non-standard inputs. That is, any input needs to be TBC and have broadcast sync. It could be that the component signals you are using are not stable enough for the JVC to use.
