[Avid-L2] Re: Bad Tape glitch fixing?

Gave it a shot in a 1400A and no luck. I might see if they can try it in a Sony deck, we don't have one in house. I even overrode the Auto PB settings and tried all the manual options and still the same. The original tape won't read time code on any of the decks either.

Most are concentrated on the right 1/4 of the frame but there are also sprinkles of drop out blocks randomly throughout the image. We've tried several decks and even the camera that it was recorded on and I'm told they all show the error. Someone suggested a Flame could do some sort of painting out that was not rotoscope. I'm not familiar with this kind of functionality. Is there some process that would be sort of like an automatic version of Avid's scratch removal. Something that would look at adjacent frames to fill in the dropout areas. The blocks of drop outs are black and white squares and sometimes rainbowy colors. Anybody got a device/software suggestion that might help? As I reread my post it sounds like some sort of super automated dust buster is what I'm thinking about. Only with really big dust blocks.
