DSR 11 Deck Problems
So thanks for the previous info. The majority of my problems ceared up once I got another firewire card on the computer. However I am still experiencing the following problem.
I recently did a 2 camera shoot, both cameras running side by side simultaneously. Both cameras were paused and started at the sametime. Both camera tapes have the same amount of TC breaks. Both tapes made a new clip the same amount of times. The only difference is that on one tape, towards the end of the tape, the tape is missing footage at the end of several takes. A minute or so in some cases. So, I think, the deck must be capturing the footage, always seeing the same breaks, but somehow disregarding some of the footage. This is only occuring when I use this deck. When I capture with my camera, I do not experience any of these problems. I am using a DSR11 deck.
Any Thoughts.What can be done. I often get multiple unlogged tapes with numerous time code breaks that need to be captured.
Is this a problem SONY is responsible for?G5 Dual 2.0 GHz processor, OSX.4.8

Do you see the missing footage if you simply play the tape? I had a DSR-11 for three years and can’t recall it ever behaving like this.
We replaced it with two M15U’s last year and they seem to handle TC breaks just fine as wel.

Really don’t know what to tell you then. Only thing I could think of is a head clog in the camera at that point doing something to throw FCP off.

Our dsr-11 dosen’t like MiniDV tapes recorded on Canon camcorders. Might be and interchange issue. It’s weird that it plays most of the tape though. It’s all or nothing with our deck.
