Found the problem. Lastnight while I was downloading it to the computer I left it running 3 hours after the video stopped. I cut that portion off but apparently the program still thought it was there.
I pulled up last weeks raw footage and everything was fine. I am redownloading it, but I going to try to do it digitally first.
Thank you!

Yes you are correct. This is the problem I face. My finance committee wants me to get better, but we are faced with poor equipment to improve with. But we will get there. I started with a Intel webcam that sat on top of my laptop and a $1.23 computer mic streaming to Italy for my pastor to watch the church service. So we have advanced.
Blessings!

Yea, well, when we started we were using firewire but I needed a longer firewire cable, so I got a 15ft. What I didn’t know was the cameramen who basically people that don’t want to sit in the crowd and stay out of site (not technical at first) was stepping on the firewire cable and pulling the connection. Eventually they stopped working. I imagine it is a simple solder fix but I don’t really want to go into the camera to fix them.
On the capturing part. I have a usb pinnacle capturing card. I hook it up composite and use a cheap AVS4YOU.com capturing software as VP10 won’t allow me to capture via composite or at least I can’t find out how.
I won’t stay in this way. When we get our new camera’s I am hoping to go to memory cards and copy it that way, but I have to prove myself to the church that we can do what we say we can do.
When we started this, we were just streaming, then a few weeks back they moved me from Media director over all the media to just video. SO that is why the interest in video/dvd making.
So all of this part is temporary and when I can produce the best with what I got, we will move to the next stage.
However in the interest of all of this, I am now looking to expand my business to video. I live on the coast of Georgia around major resorts and weddings are everywhere. What I am doing for the church I feel will eventually give me the opportunity to make money at it.
Blessings!

Jr, I don’t see the connections to these units. I am assuming they are DV connection? Both my camera’s dv port have gone south for life. All I have to come out is the yellow port on the camera which is either composite or component and I don’t know which one is which.
Blessings!

That’s a better solution than the results I found lastnight.
The two units you suggested, if I am recording 3 different feeds to go home and edit the video, then I will need 3 of those units, correct?Blessings!

Yes, I can do that. I have been approved of the VP10 and I will get it this afternoon or tomorrow and will post it then.
Thanks!
