Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Problems to capture HDV to MC6

i too have had problems capturing hdv sony from firewire mc v6. most all of what you mention, lack of progress, av no longer coming into system and other avid STD's. i gave up, the tapes i am capturing are for archival migration and didnt need to match to an edit (although i do have some seqs that would be nice to have linking media.) i just hooked it up baseband via HD component cable out of the camera and audio analogue (on this machine a decklink intensity pro) and captured them on the fly without TC. i set a default capture duration in settings of 64min, max on sony tape.

would be nice to have done it the real way, but there was too many problems crossing tc breaks and the STD's you mentioned. this would likely to be not fixed in any newer build since HDV is pretty dead format.

i'd recommend migrate and move on, the easiest way possible

Thank you for the several suggestions to help me capture this tape. Still no
success:
1. I am capturing to an internal hard drive used only to capture. I tried
also an external e-SATA drive.
2. I am trying to capture using the same camera used to record the video.
3. I tried launching after loading the tape and placing in pause mode.
4. I tried 10 seconds of pre-roll.
5. I tried turning off the TC track. When doing this the red ball record
button flashed like it was recording but there was no image in the composer
window and no apparent file in a bin when I hit the record button again to
stop.
6. There are gliches in the playback. I will track down a head-cleaning tape
tomorrow and try that.

I am getting a new error message to add to the other 3: Exception: Audio/video
is unexpectly no longer coming into the sytem.

Happy to receive any other suggestions! I'll try cleaning the heads. Thanks
for the help. David.
