  • tape problem prevents capture & transfers to copy?

    Posted by Peter Ralph on November 16, 2006 at 2:14 pm

    I received a tape from a client – home movie type stuff recorded with a sony DV handycam – don’t know the model. Before capturing the tape I duplicated it and captured the copy. FCP would not capture because of an error, first it reported time code break – then an error for which I could not get details. I narrowed the problem down to a specific point on the tape. Could not capture that section. I made another copy – same problem in the same place. I went back to the original tape – again same problem in the same place.

    what type of problem might a tape have that would prevent capture even when copied? The original tape seems to hand momentarily at the critical point – but there is no timecode break there?
