Video Capture Aborts

[pbarrett]

I am operating a new IMac OS X 10.5.3 system and my new Roxio Toast 9 simply will not allow me to capture video directly from my Mini-DV for any length over 19 minutes or so. I used Disk Warrior to clean up any potential conflicts in the directories, etc., but I am just getting nowhere. When the tape gets to about 17-19 minutes, it simply stops and the Roxio window closes. I've tried re-installing it. I did use Migration Assistant to move all my files from my old Mac to this one, but that was prior to installing Toast 9 and I don't think that is relevant here, but FYI. I use this function practically daily for my video business and I am getting into a hole with clients fast. HELP!

This forum is principally for EMC10, not Toast, users. Toast users do have a forum where you might be more likely to get help, though, here.

We transferred the whole thread to the Toast forum for those of you that are confused.

 

This may be a problem specific to the model of camera that you use. It also could have to do with the amount of hard drive space you have available. I just imported about 1 hour of Video the other day from my sony camera.
