  • timecode error?

    Posted by Set Apart on February 21, 2006 at 3:37 am

    Hey Guys,
    For some reason, when I’m capturing on the fly, Avid always stops the capture everytime there’s a cut on the tape. But there’s NO timecode break. So why does it automatically do that? Is there a setting that can allow me to capture without the machine stopping, and still keeping the timecode that’s on the tape?

    Thanks,

    M.J.

    if you’re talking dv it may be a scene extraction issue??

    If you’re talking digibeta it may be a camera tc generator problem, try switching your vt to read vitc or ltc as opposed to the usual auto setting.
