My department recently bought two of these capture boxes, one for each of the studios we run daily. We needed a cost-effective solution for recording our daily operations.
I have noticed that they are a little bit glitchy, but the biggest issue I am currently facing (and I have read that others have also had this issue) is that the audio drifts further away from the video as time goes on. For short recordings, it isn’t a problem. But a couple weeks ago, we recorded something for about 2.5 hours and the drift is multiple seconds off by the end.
We are still running SD, so I notice some of the fuzziness that others are talking about, but mostly when I pull the video into Final Cut Pro. I notice that if I convert the file using Compressor first, that I don’t have as much of an issue. The FCP conversion just doesn’t cut it. I do also notice some of the edges being lined instead of smooth.
