We figured it out, at least the 720×720 capture issue.

We installed Quicktime on the PC using the standalone installer from Apple downloads. We went back and installed the standard iTunesSetup.exe version from Quicktime.com and now it works. I really didn’t want to have to install iTunes as well but looks like the only solution.

We’ve confirmed this by uninstalling and reinstalling from the stand alone version and it breaks it again.

We have some other problems as well though, and these showed up in Machina too.

We are doing long captures. We’ve seen problems where the video will all of sudden go white and the audio will get distorted. It has happened on multiple captures using 2.0 of the drivers usually an hour or so into the Quicktime.

We tried Machina. It keeps reporting dropped frames yet we can’t isolate they are actually happening. Also, it doesn’t abort when they drop. (If there is a setting to override that I don’t know about it)

It’s not useful to have a dropped frame warning if it keeps going and you have no idea where it supposedly dropped. Final Cut and Blackmagic’s utility can abort immediately.

We have to be able to trust it captured correctly without going through an hour long clip and looking for dropped frames.

I don’t think that is our problem. This is happening on the same machine we’re capturing on, immediately after capture.

Just to add, the final product will be delivered on DVD.

That would work except the editor mixed down with the match frame edits in there and the subsequent pops. So we’d have to go back into the premixed down version which is different. We’re patching it now, I just want to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Some of the clips were 44.1, the DV is obviously 48. There is no overlap of different sample rates where the glitches are occuring.

I tried to copy just the glitchy part to a new timeline where there is no 44.1 sound based on your advice but it didn’t help.

Starting from scratch and just making some “join through edits” was clean though
