force capture issues
hello-
i have a bad source tape that i need to capture. it has time code, which seems to work just fine, actually- but the tape has major audio and video glitches. i switched to “con-controllable device” in the capture window (thank you- this forum helped me to do this and it worked last time)- but capture still aborts every 30 seconds to 2 minutes- with the error of: “capture encountered a problem reading the data on your source tape. this could be due to a problem with the tape . . . ”
any thoughts on how i can force FCP to capture?
thank you for your help.

DUb this tape to another tape. Capture that other tape.

Try this app to capture the tape:
https://www.bigmugsoftware.com/capture/
It has a trial period. Works where nothing else will – its not constrained by QuickTime, so in addition to capturing right over timecode breaks you can capture more than one source at a time. The synch of the capture will be off if there is timecode weirdness, but you’ll get it captured and can synch it up on the timeline…
