Hi - I've had a serious problem capturing HDV clips using the Vegas capture facility. Clips were broken into small sections (long single takes, and scene selection turned off so that wasn't the problem) and long chunks of audio were flat lines. No dropped frames reported but the captured clips were unusable.
Through our Australian distributor, New Magic, I sent sample clips and screenshots to Sony and received a range of suggestions. The one that worked was to increase the size of the Max RAM buffer size from the default of 25% to 80%.
I now get perfect captures every time and perfect playback as well, getting 25fps locked on at Best (full) preview.
Grateful to Sony and New Magic for the support - I hadn't realised that setting would have such a huge effect.
Cheers
