Video Capture Problems
Hi Everyone, I have been having problems capturing video with Vegas 10. The capture usually starts out okay and then I start getting digital distortion and the clips start breaking up. I really really don’t want to have to do a clean install of my system since every time I have to do that re-authorizing all my plug-ins etc is a major headache – but I am currently unable to work with my normal workflow and its driving me nuts.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

What are you capturing from / What format etc?

I’ve been doing some tests this morning to verify what is happening – the capture works fine on my Mac with FCP and worked fine with Premiere on my PC – so this is a problem with Vegas only it seems – and I did try the uninstall/ reinstall solution

I’m capturing HDV footage from a Canon Vixia HV30 through firewire – been using this set-up for years with no problems until a few months ago.

Christopher – it’s a long shot that you’re having the same problem I recently experienced, but I’ll mention it anyway. I purchased a 2TB external Toshiba Canvio drive and I have similar problems when trying to capture video from a Sony HD cam via firewire. I don’t have this problem with any of the other half dozen or so drives that I have (all Seagate or WD drives).
So the question … have you tried using another drive?

yes I have tried capturing to both an internal and external drive – I think all my drives are WD and seem to have the same problem
