  • Mac OS X 10.6.5, Live Capture Plus 2.2.0 and “Conversion process failed” error all the time

    Posted by Vladimir Novikov on November 18, 2010 at 11:02 pm

    Hi all, maybe someone knows how to solve this issue.

    I’ve purchased LCP yesterday and have tried to capture some Betacam tapes using the built-in FW port of the SONY J-30SDI player. While I can capture small clips, the capture of the whole 90 min. tape ether in “Whole tape” or IN-OUT mode is not possible and I get the “Conversion process failed” message.

    I can get the temporary DV file from cache, but it doesn’t have the embedded timecode and that’s the most important requirement.

    I have plenty of free disk space. I’ve tried the previous version 2.1.2 mentioned in the FAQ with the same error.

    What can I do?

    Thanks a lot in advance.

    There could be any one of a number of (mostly QuickTime-related) causes for conversion failures, so I’ve emailed Vladimir asking for a copy of the log files that should shed some more light on what’s happening.
