HDV Capture issues
I’ve been having random issues capturing HDV via firewire with my sony Z7U into Sony Vegas 9. sometimes the audio drops out, sometimes the video freezes and the audio continues, sometimes the video starts going in slow mo while the audio continues normally, thus falling out of sync with the video. The footage was recently shot on new tape in HDV Progressive 30fps. I borrowed a friends Z7U to try to capture the footage shot with my camera and it does the same thing. I also shot some footage with my friends camera and tried capturing that footage with my camera and it does the same thing.
I’m now starting to suspect a TC issue…cause when I recapture the footage and splice it together to cover errors in the original capture, then use a script to display the TC in the clip, the TC does not match.
Both cameras were set to “Auto” mode in the [TC] NDF or DF menu. Gonna try recording footage in DF setting then capturing and same with NDF. But I’m wondering if anyone has some knowledge about this already or experience with this sort of issue.
Is there a NDF or DF setting for HDV in Vegas Video 9? I don’t see one.
