HELP!!!
This one is crazy!
I was capturing an entire tape of a live event that I did (DVCAM 184). Rather than sitting there for 3 hours, I set an in and out point and took off. Well, I came back 3 hours later and only half of the tape actually got captured. It said that the second half was offline. I think it was because of a timecode break. But I did have half of the tape captured. So I went to capture the second part of the clip via the same method…IN and OUT point and walk away…But when It set up the batch list, the first half of the clip went offline!!
The weird thing is that it is now gone from my scratch disk and nowhere to be found. What in the world happened? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance!

Capture Now?
184 Minutes?
Wait, don’t tell me….FireWire drives?All a recipe for disaster bro.
I’d set in and out points for 6 30 minute clips to batch capture.
So what happened to the first clip? I don’t ever think it was actually ever captured.
When a Capture Now kraps out, you get nadda, zilch. ZERO.
Tough break to learn, a lot of time to waste too.
Log and Batch Capture shorter clips if you don’t want this to happen to you again.Kevin Monahan
