done with vhs transfer to hd...moving onto hi8 and having some problems.
i'm using an old sony handcam ccd-trv36 to playback my old hi8 tapes and transfer them to the hard drive. the problem is: the playback is bad. the lcd screen and the realtime screen in edius neo shows a "jumpy" picture, an inconsistent representation of the recording. i plugged it into my hi-def tv and it worked fine, surprisingly.
when i capture, i shut down all other processes and don't do anything on the computer. there is no firewire output on the camcorder, only a yellow rca cable for video and a black one for audio, which i used a converter to get a stereo sound.
im not sure what the problem is. can't be "dirty" camcorder heads because it worked fine on the hdtv. can't be the firewire cord or the computer as they're both new. i'm also capturing to an os free spare hard-drive. i'm really at a loss here.
thank you.
