Editing HD and color correction... Can't Post

I am running the Intensity Pro on a 2.66 Quad Core MacPro running Leopard with all current updates to OSX and Intensity Pro.
HDV footage catured either HDMI or Firewire (FW) from Canon HV20.

I am attempting to preview HDV footage via S-Video to my JVC Production monitor (properly callibrated). I don't curently have a HD monitor to preview HDV footage via HDMI (will when funds allow). So I am just attempting to preivew SD footage from HD timeline for color grading purposes (I use video scopes to properly set color levels).

Here are my current settings:
Project: HDV 1080i 60
External Preview: Intensity Pro for video (720 x 486) and audio or Apple Firewire (720 x 480)

The footage goes out to the monitor fine, but the color seems much lighter than if I preview to the same monitor via Firewire (FW to Canopus ADVC100 box to JVC Monitor).

Is this normal for the color space to be that different from S-Video footage and Firewire.

I assume that it is since the FW connection is digital and the S-Video is analog.

I just wanted to be sure before going forward.

I will eventually pickup a HD monitor to go out of the Intensity Pro via HDMI.
