shooting on Vericams. Different cameras. Same issues as yours except didn’t catch till over a hundred hrs. digged.
27 hrs had to be re captured. Best I can figure, (with lot’s of questions to Panisonic, and Apple folks, which wasn’t much help) is you’re right—when time code breaks happened, or wasn’t perfect, clip/capture defaults to 30/60 even tho WHOLE tape shot 24, capture settings 24.
Here’s what we did—and it worked on about half the offinding clips.
-Changed whatever the default pre-roll and post-roll settings to 3 sec.
-highlited offending clip in the bin, ‘ALT/Apple key+d’ and deleted the media from the drive.
-then in the bin, click on the ‘media start’ time code and added 5 sec or so. Subtracted 5 sec or so from the ‘media end’ the same way.
And it batch captured as it should have.
That was the half of the clips that would allow the in’s and out’s to be modified. Some reason, we gave up trying to determine, the other half wouldn’t let #’s be changed that way. No rhyme or reason. Just wouldn’t.
So, those had to be manually qued up marked in & out and worked o.k.
As well, if you’ve disabled ‘abort capture on time code break’ might re-enable to keep it from changing to 30/60 by itself. Didn’t get a chance to check if that worked.
Good luck.

Everything’s rendered.
Got a 1T internal eSATA RAID that’s only 1/2 full and has played back no problem in the past.
So…uh…

Giving it a shot this morning. Just what I was after.

As to the ‘why?’— the clients server it’s to be loaded on in their theatre is needing 1080.
So I guess the question is now, (instead of 3 options, just 2?)
-up rez in FCP (what’s best way?)
-or up convert when laying to tape thru the HD150? (Mannual says it’ll do it, be testing tonite)
Hmmm…got a feeling I’m in trouble with those 2 options. Can’t be as problem free as the AJA route was seeming.
Was (no, still am) loving what this AJA thing will do tho.
Wish I’d opened that box it was stashed in by my predicessor a month ago. Wonder what else is around here….
Thanks,

…just what I was looking for.
By the way, Shane’s just an acronym or alias for what?—couple dozen tech folks, right?
No way one human could consistantly bail the rest of us out with help and knowledge, do a insightful Blog, keep current, hell, AHEAD of all vid prod tech trends—
and keep clients or a job and sleep. No way.
I’m on to you guys, whom ever you are—and thanks a million .

With you there, man. Haven’t given that bad bit of code a second thought in years.
Very true what you say …

“… if if was flagged as 24p in SD the Kona 2 should see the flags correctly. ”
How exactly would you tell if it didn’t?

Sorry, know can’t do HD w/the I/o, just wondering if say, going standard def in to FinalCut from the AJ-HD150 thru the I/o would be better quality than FireWire in from Panasonic 1200A.
Just looking to get best quality from the boxes I’ve suddenly inherited in the new job.
Thanks

tech guy at OWC was right—quit and restart made possible to drag drives to create
a RAID.Man, the time I’ve wasted…
