Re: Sync issues with Batch Capture

We too have experienced some weird audio sync issues. Sometimes when you scrub along the time line too fast, audio and video will go out of sync. But if you merely wait 10-15 seconds, and then play the time line again, everything is back in sync. We can live with that.

We have experienced an intermittent problem where clips are captured out of sync. The past several times it has happened, the audio is always ahead of the video by 7 frames. If we go into the capture scratch folder and throw away the media from these shots, and then recapture them through batch recapture, most of the time, they are recaptured correctly.

This has been an impossible problem to chase down. First, it is an intermittent problem. We have not seen any consistency to this problem at all. Secondly, we just rebuilt our system. We went from a G5 to a Mac Pro. We went from Tiger to Leopard. We went from a Kona LS to an Io-HD. We went from FCP 5 to FCP 6. The only thing that has stayed constant is we are still using the same CalDigit S2VR Duo drives, but we change the eSATA host adapter cards, so even that has changed.
