Aight well i FINALLy got my computer up and running, and now it is a sort of video editing/playing station. I'm using a Firewire IEEE 1394A card to interface between the camera and the computer. I'm using Adobe Premier to edit the videos. So first off i just took some random footage of some stuff and tried to capture it. I ran into a problem though. When i captured the video and played it back the video would have a checkerboard effect sometimes. Like certain pixels were glitching or something. Any ideas on what caused this or how i could fix it? Thank you!!!
sounds like droped frames in the feed. How fast is your system, mainly, how fast can you write to your hard-drives?
I have done some checking and it seems that sometimes premiere can have some capture problems. Try using a different capture program. My personal favorite is WINDV.
I use pinnacle studio 9 and its pretty cool, i use adobe at work and its not that great at capturing the files
