Thanks so much for your response Jon,

Dv tapes were filmed on the camera.
running from camera via rca to canopus advc55 which is then connected to computer with a fw600->fw800 cable w a thunderbolt adapted
into macbook pro retina 2015

multiple TBs of avail storage

the capture window show the video playing the entire time until i end capture with esc but then only a fragment appears to be captured

tried in imovie and it generates a series of individual fragmented clips that have slight jumps in time.

the camera is still operational and the problem is systemic over all tapes. so i’m not sure what the weakest link is.
but would love to some sort of brute capture that ignores any problems on incoming material / rewrites tc / just ingests the raw footage warts and all, clean or unclean.

hi

i am curious about this possible fix in the context of correcting sync issues when round tripping from fcp to stp and back – i have tried all sorts of things – and this one seems promising – the original sample rates i have in the fcp project are inconsistent, so perhaps roudntripping them to 32 bit would be a corrective? – but i cannot figure out how to select 32 bit floating point in the aiff export from stp?
