Capture Problems with Video Raid
Hey guys,
regulary I’m capturing HDTV 1080i 50 at 8 bit 4:2:2 over a blackmagic brigde on a internal Video Raid on my Mac without any trouble. But just today, after I cleaned the raid from older stuff and after capturing DVCAM in RGB on it I had no chance to get any HD-material on the raid that is longer than 10 seconds. Reports of timecode errors. The tapes are ok, I used them before. The Raid seems to be fine except when I ran a speed test with blackmagic: 1 frame too slow.Does anyone of you know this problem or has an anwser?
Thanks big times

Hey guys,
ha, I found the solution myself by deleting all empty storage on the raid – so it says in german on the drive-assistant on the Mac. There are three version to overwrite deleted data wich was before various footage:1. Overwriting with zeros
2. Deleting deleted date in 7 rounds
3. Deleting deleted data in 35 roundsI tryed the first (but it took hours). Sounds wired but works! The speed test was now up at 43 fps for HDTV 1080i 50 8 bit an the material is capturing right now without a stop.
It’s probably making a differences to iron the socks 😉
Thanks for this site and keep on clickin’
