time code breaks
Hi. I am trying to digitize to an Avid my DVX100A footage shot on 25P PAL (squeeze). It keeps stopping with a Time Code Break in the middle of scenes! ANY SUGGESTIONS?? THANKS>

Do you have ‘digitize across time code beaks’ selected in settings / deck preferences?

It is not in the deck preference, it is in your project bin under settings, capture and the general tab.

tried that…didn’t help…it happens in the middle of shots, sometimes, and between shots a lot of the time.

Make sure you aren’t running anything else while digitizing. On one of my systems, I can’t log, batch dig and then cruise the Cow…the other system can’t handle it.
If that isn’t the problem, couple of options – try control track. Or black another tape, lay the footage to that tape…then you know you have a pristine time code.
If you are using a tape that’s been used a few times, TC can get a little wierd.
