    Howdy All,
    Im here to dazzle ya’all again with another brilliant question.
    So…. I am logging and capturing a project that needs to have a continuous time code the way the footage was shot. However, As I was going over the clips in the browser, they were NOT starting and stopping at the breaks in the tape, but in seemingly random spots and creating a new clip. My clip settings were @ create new clip on start stop. Any Ideas what’s going on? I shot and am capturing the footage from my Sony Z5U.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi chris,
    No, the limit capture length is not set to any specific amount of time. I did figure out how to get the clips to go into the browser intact. I took forever as sometimes clips would appear and then I would have to Capture all over again till no clips were formed. They were however all cut up in my capture scratch folder which required a little mending so I could re-connect media in my project.
    Does this sound like anything you have encountered before?
