I guess this isn't a recapture but a automatic resync of manually recaptured media? Semantics? Andi

Sylvain,
the question is how you do a recapture when there is no remote control?
Cheers

You answered your question. You must capture with timecode for the recapture to work. Otherwise, how magically would it work?

Thanks Sylvain,
How exactly would you recapture, If there is no timecode control in the first instance??

Live capture has been changed recently (7.5, or was it 7.6?) to support recapture, so yes it has been changed.

As with Tape capture, DS is looking at the Source name and Timecode information, not the clip name. Keeping the same information will cause indeed this problem.

So if you capture without a timecode feed (in the remote cable from the deck), Live capture behaves as before and starts its timecode at 00:00:00:00. The last captured media show for all previous captured clips.

Feed timecode and Live capture will register this information and marks each Live captured clip with a different timecode, thus showing the correct media from each clips.

And if you accidentally lose this material, you can now recapture, as before it was not possible. :-))

I was wondering if this has changed in V7 ??
On live capture I set a tape name and capture clips from a non-TC


source .


Upon multiple captures DS ascends the name, but upon viewing the clips the media from one clip has been applied to all clips, as though





you have captured different tapes but forgot to change the tape name?
Previously on V6 I could capture from a non-tc source and not change tape names, the clips would be captured and retained as they were captured.


Is this a bug or something that I'm missing.

Thanks in advance

Simon
