Based on your description I'm wondering if the next tape you convert will have the audio in sync and it is just that one tape that is the problem.

Based on your description I'm wondering if the next tape you convert will have the audio in sync and it is just that one tape that is the problem. I didn't listen to it before it went to iMovie, so I'm not sure. But at teh beginning of the video it was fine and it did get worse as time went on. I'll check the tape on a VCR to see if it's just the tape. If it is the tape, any idea of how I could fix it? Is that even possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElemTeacher Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 I checked the video on a TV and the audio/video is fine. I'm going to try to re-record it to my computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsantee Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 I checked the video on a TV and the audio/video is fine. I'm going to try to re-record it to my computer. This is puzzling. Is the audio getting late (the audio track is longer than the video track)? If that is the case it may be that the device dropped video frames during the encoding. This might happen if the Mac was busy with other operations during the encoding or the video from the tape was unstable. Try restarting your Mac before doing the capture again.

I was thinking maybe it was that I was having my Mac do something else while recording and that's what happened. Going to do shorter bits (30-40 minutes instead of 90-120) - as I watch it in Roxio so far it's looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
