  • Footage skipping while capturing into FCP

    Posted by Rachel King on August 3, 2011 at 3:06 pm

    I’m trying to capture footage into my FCP. It usually works just fine, but now it is skipping numerous frames (having a strobe-like effect). The tape is running smoothly on the viewer on my digital videocassette recorder but skipping on the Log and Capture viewer in FCP. I know it is not the DV tapes I am using as this is now happening with an older DV tape that I captured and used just fine. Please help! My project is due immediately!

    And the scratch drive you are capturing to is?
    How full is it?
    Do the clips playback fine after capture?
