  • Capture Now, TC Breaks, and Single-Frame Clips

    Posted by Josh Greenbaum on May 18, 2009 at 10:05 pm

    When I capture now across timecode breaks Final Cut often leaves me with single-frame clips no matter how long the shot runs uninterrupted after the break on the tape. In this particular case, I have tried various capture stations and different capture devices with the same end. Any info on why this is happening and how to avoid it would be great.

    Thanks!

    I don’t know this for sure, but in User Prefs try unchecking the “Abort capture on dropped frames.”
