Problems with AspectHD -> ProspectHD at DVinfo.net

I had 6 tapes of material captured using HDLink under AspectHD. Before I could edit the project I upgraded to Prospect HD and decided to recapture everything again.

One of the tapes seems to have been damaged so I am now editing 5 tapes captured under ProspectHD and 1 tape captured under AspectHD (HDLink for all). But the material from the AspectHD capture comes out jittery -- not like you'd get with incorrect interlacing -- just jumpy. All the material was 30p from a Canon A1.

Do I need to set some sort of parameter to get the AspectHD captured tape to work with the new ProspectHD?

By the way, when I play the original captured video (prior to editing with ProspectHD), there is no jitter.

nothing much differs for HDV capture between Aspect and Prospect. Likely due to something else. Get a ticket opened with support and send in a small sample.

Thanks for the reply. Not sure what was going on there ... perhaps my .proj file in PP got corrupted. My fix was to create a new .proj file and import the old .proj file into it. I could then access my original sequences and re-render them while in the new .proj file. Everything then worked fine.
