FCP – Capture failure with VHS converted foogate
I’m a basic FCP user. I am attempting to capture films from the 1930s and 40s. The films were transferred onto VHS before I received them. I transferred them onto mini dv using a JVC HR-DVS3U Video Cassette Recorder. Now I am attempting to capture the mini dv tapes into FCP 6.0.6, but continue to receive this message:
“Capture encountered a problem reading the data on your source tape. This could be due to a problem with the tape. Capture has been aborted…”
I am using the FireWire NTSC device control.
I have attempted the Capture/ Input settings of
DV NTSC 48kHz
DV NTSC 48kHz Advanced Pulldown Removal
and DV NTSC 48kHz Anamorphic (bascially because the others did not work.)I am using my Panasonic DVX100 as my deck.
Can anyone offer any suggestions?
Thank you!

I would hook up a VHS machine to the input of the DVS3U machine and capture as non-controllable device/DV NTSC 48 khz, directly from the VHS, thru the DV machine without recoding it to tape.
I don’t have this specific machine, but I have a BR-50, which has a DV setting, and it works on that.Scott Sheriff
