I’ve never seen this but it seems to fit 24/30 frame ratio. Are you in a 24 frame time line?

My God! It’s trippplicating!
There’s no need to start a new post for the same topic Sven. People will respond eventually and multiple posts tends to break up the colaborative responses of everyone. 🙂

[Shane Ross] “I had one where people offered to buy something I listed HERE of all places.”
I had this same scam when I listed a printer on ebay. Ebay has a feedback profile at least, on the cow all we can do is check the seller’s posts and try to figure if they are real or not. I’ve purchased on the cow classifieds and had a great experience, thanks again Max! With my ebay fraud the guy used “buy now” and emailed saying he was a buyer for a number of companies, one of whom had requesitioned such a printer as I had. His buyer would pay me directly and could I imediately wire him his commission (the overpayment part) The printer was $900.00 and I recieved a cashier’s check for $3800.00. He hoped by the time my bank would get back to me telling me the check was no good I would have already sent him his cash. I figured he would have to physically go into western union to collect “his” commission so I kept him going while I called the police, notified ebay etc. The cops could wait for him at western union and jump him when he collected the loot I thought. The local police didn’t want to help because he was in the USA and I’m in Canada. Trying to get ebay on board to catch this guy through ebay’s message system proved futile. Between work, eating, sleeping and all, it was a while before I thought of calling the RCMP (Canada’s national police) and I was given a link to a vollenteer run organization where I could voice my complaint. I never did connect with anyone there through the email system on their web page and eventually the crook realized I was just playing him along. I had the satifaction of knowing he wasted $22.00 on fedexing me his phoney check (which is on my wall).
I would urge anyone in this situation to try to lead the crook on and get him busted. It didn’t work for me but next time everything could just line up and the guy could be nailed. People who don’t work like the rest of us but will try to steal from those who do work for what they have, should be nailed. We should all do what we can to nail them. What really gets me is what small minds these pea brains have, to actually think these scams will work! Unfortunately like in Walter’s case they are after your credit of your entire identity.

I’m not familiar with the decklink or the deck so the only thing I would add is to ensure the sync switch on the deck is set to “Int”. (internal) or it is sometimes refered to as “video” (deck reads the embedded sync off the current tape or input stream). Set it to the “EXT” (external) only if you are providing an external sync signal (ie: from another deck or house sync.
It shouldn’t hurt to connect the “sync out” of the deck to the BM card. -
You would need to search the archives or possibly the calf forums for this info.
Your system drive is running the app. (reading)
When capturing media it is: (writing)
You are making your computer read and write at the same time to the same drive. The drive’s optical head must hop around the platters to various sectors to read operational instructions of the app PLUS hop around to various unused blocks of sectors to write the data you are creating. This is why it is crawling. Video editing is one of the most demanding uses of computers so it is advisable to write to a deticated media drive preferably 7200 rpm or faster. -

Hey, maybe it’s the proto type they had at NAB 2005! Was that one plastic or wood?

Hi Mortimer, I would need to get $400.00 for one and I’ll include a manual. If you are interested I’ll get the exact hours. I can tell you now the drum, capstan and reel hours are under 500 but the operation will be up there because they are often left powered on. The power on doesn’t hurt anything it just means the power was left on. The deck works like new and looks like new too although there may be a few slight scuffs. I’d rate it 9 out of 10. These use the same load mechanism as JVC’s Digital-S decks and physically they are about the same size (big). They run super smooth and quite too. The component option is included. It will cost about $75.00 to ship to Canada or USA. My email is rennieklymyk@telus.net. I can send some photos if you are interested.

I still have one reel to reel and it doesn’t get much use for shure but I use the jvc’s quite a bit still mainly for dumping onto dvd and some ingesting and of coarse watching all my old s-vhs collection. I had a transfer from mini dv to vhs yesterday and I have another to do today so joe public are still using vhs too. I’m in a small city so I have legacy 1″ ,3/4; beta and the SP versions, MII etc etc. I find people are willing to pay just about anything to get what’s on those tapes off them. If I were down town NY I couldn’t afford the floor space to keep them but for now I can still squeeze a buck out of em once in a while. I’m just waiting for ther DVW 500’s to drop below $1000.00 as we all go tapeless!

Going tapeless – am I nuts?
I just had a head clog on a second camera I had running in the corner by itself which I was monitoring on a sony pvm-5041. I didn’t know I had a problem till I was able to get to the camera and saw the rf warning in the viewfinder. The first thing I thought of was tapeless! I’m thinking P2. If you remember the first dvd’s were over $50.00 each and now they are what .50
