Strange.. maybe corrupt registry or something. Even after a complete uninstall I wouldn’t be surprised if there were still some registry entries that lingered around, finding and cleaning those all out, all the temp files/shared libraries, etc.. and then reinstalling might help. Seems like an awful lot of work though.
Did the problem just arise suddenly? What else had changed prior to this problem? I guess in theory, if the computer had crashed or something, some data could have been written to disk wrong that would cause issues. Or perhaps a bad sector or two on the drive is interfering.. I suppose even a badly fragmented disk might cause something like this, but I’d expect you would be suffering a major change in overall system performance then as well.
Just thinking out loud here, maybe something will help. Sorry I can’t be of any more direct help.

Perhaps the plugin is corrupt or something..
Not sure what effect it provides, but on a standard install it’s located here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects 7.0\Support Files\Plug-ins\Standard\Standard Effectsmaybe try renaming it to write_on.aex.backup or something to disable it from being loaded? See if that works, if not you’ve got some other issues..

You might try using a 16×9 project. If the video shows up as 4:3 in it, you can stretch it to fill the screen, so the only part cut off would be the letter box.
As for DVD creation, I’ve always had good luck with exporting as DV lower field first, then encoding to mpeg2.

I’ve run into this problem when I had tapes from a DVX100 that were shot in 24p mode, and tapes from a cannon XL1 shot in “frame mode”.. video played fine, I was able to capture the whole tape (without scene detection) and edit no problem, but timecode wasn’t recognized because the deck I played it back with didn’t support either of the original record methods, so it didn’t understand the timecode.

It certainly doesn’t appear to, no.. but I think it can be done with VBScripting..
Think I might take a stab at it, if I can make it work, I’ll share. 😉

I’ve got the PCIe version of the 7800GT, it has two DVI outputs and a vivo port. Came with two dvi to vga adapters. I absolutely love this card, and eventually I may buy a second and use the SLi link for even a bit more power (apparently it overclocks well too)

use your other camera as a capture card.

In the future, should you run across a camera without firewire, you could use the ‘pass through’ conversion on your camera, though you’d probably loose a little quality.

I would guess it’s likely just a preview window issue.. rendering it should bring it back to “normal”

The only way I’ve been able to do this is to open them with quicktime and export in a different format.
It’s time and disk consuming, but it works.
