I know you are on AJA, but the Blackmagic manual for Avid has instructions
for a setting to relax Coincindence Point detection. This may fix your
problem. Give it a try.
Capture from Controllable devices with UltraStudio, DeckLink and Multibridge
If you have a deck which connects via RS-422, you will need to configure
the deck settings before performing
a capture.
From your project window, click the Settings tab and double-click on Deck
Configuration.
In the Deck Configuration dialog box, click Add Channel and then set the
Channel Type to Direct and the Port to RS-422 Deck Control. Click OK and
choose "No" when asked, "Do you want to autoconfigure the channel now?"
Click Add Deck and then select your brand and model of deck from the Device
menus and also set the desired preroll. Click OK and then Apply.
Under the Settings tab, double-click on Deck Preferences.
If you plan to make assemble edits to tape, enable the option to "Allow
assemble edit & crash record for digital cut". If this option is left
unchecked, you will only be able to perform insert edits.
Enable the option to "Relax coincidence point detection" and set other
settings as needed. Click OK. You have completed setting up the RS-422
connection to your deck.
