Digital pass-through- Vegas capture stops at 7 seconds?!?!
I am trying to capture some VCR tapes to my Vegas 6 capture. My mini DV has digital analog passthrough. The problem I am having is that is stops capturing - every time at 7 seconds. My drive is clean and defragged - so that doesn't seem to be the problem. The 7 seconds looks fine that is captured, but for some reason it won't capture more then that - any ideas? Last time I had to capture through MS moviemaker with XP BUT I want to go through Vegas is possible. Any ideas? There is nothing in preferences that says stop at scenes etc.

Are they commercial tapes? Movies?
If so, you may be running into copy protection.

Nope, a friend of mine owns a record label and he has a load of old VCR tapes of his bands music videos he wants digitized. Again, it works in MS moviemaker capture, but not in Vegas...weird.

Do you have another camera to pass it through? It could be the camera as well.
Not sure, but worth a try.

I don't. I have just finished using Moviemaker because Vegas 6 won't cooperate. Sucks, but at least I have the option. I just wonder what is wrong? I don't think it is the camera because it wouldn't work with MSMovieMaker if it was...

Check to see if Vegas capture has a setting for 'uncontrolled device' or similar that will tell it you have a device without deck control and no timecode. Just a thought, -gb- |

Did you turn off device control?

If Device Control is off, is it possible you've got a dropped frame at that point, and Capture is stopping on a dropped frame? You have Preferences to determine whether capture should or should not stop on dropped frames.

In the Video Capture program Preferences "CAPTURE" tab, I have "Minimum Clip Length (seconds)" set to "1".

Hi
This might be a stupied question, But is your version a copy? (No Need to answer).....Because if it is then I suggest you either move up to vegas 7 or down to vegas 5 as I know theirs a problem with some of the vegas version 6 cracks........Not all but some...as my friend had the same problem and it was his version of vegas..... So Try to upgrade, that may help.... |
