Re: drop frames on capture

No other S/W running during capture other than native XP background
processes. Checked the CPU load and it is fine during capture. 250Gig
drive that is mirrored. Everything I have read so far points to the
hard drive as a possible congestion point. Maybe the mirrored drive is
causing the frame drops???

I have a Sony miniDV and using firewire to capture to Premier Pro 2.0 I
get several drop frames over a few seconds of capture. I'm using a
Pentium 4 - 2.4Ghz with a Gig of RAM. The video plays back fine on
the
camera and the heads have been cleaned. Any ideas why I get the drop
frames?

What else is running on your computer?
Do you have a fast and clean disc that you
are capturing to?
