TC Accuracy HELP
by Matt Press on Jul 21, 2008 at 8:45:15 pm

Hi Guys,
I’m having a Major issue with TC accuracy. I recently had to re-install FCP Studio 2.
“BlackMagic issues” I had a perfect TC to Master Tape Easy Setup for the last 2 years. +6 frames offset did the trick. NOW I can’t get the accuracy to be consistant. Literally one time it’s perfect and the next it misses by a frame. VERY FRUSTRATING! I master out programing all day to DBeta mostly. I’ve tried every combination of offsets and none will hold.
What do you guys think?

What version drivers are you using for the Decklink? I had a brief period with the same accuracy problem but the latest drivers fixed that. I am going out to digi and HDCam.

Obviously you have reference video connected or you are using the black output from the Decklink to sync.

I have just finished over 3000 insert edits into a HDW1800 using the latest drivers for the Multibridge Extreme and got 100% accuracy every time.
In another edit suite I have a Decklink HD Pro and get 100% accuracy although I haven't done 3000 edits. So it just may be what Michael suggests - drivers.

What would I do without the 'UNDO' button!!!!

I recently re-installed blackmagic from their site. All recent drivers. This is when my problems started.
