choppy video

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

I created a movie and it looks great in the computer. When I transferred it
back to my camera it is all choppy, with blank spots. Many of the transitions
do not show up as transitions, just pauses in the video. Any ideas?

Yes, fire wire.

Nothing was runnng, BUT, I did not think to check what might have been
running in the background....

Sometimes even antivirus software running in realtime can cause this, but
the first thing to try next is defrag the hard drive before you capture.

Your camcorder is connected to A/C power and not to its internal battery?

I had the same problem. It turns out I had a bad fire wire cable. If that's
not it, you might also try WinDV utility (check the posting "Copy a video to
SONY digital camcorder" ).

Could this have anything to do with the recording speed on the camera? My
camera is set to LP. I could switch it over to SP before I transfer the tape
back?????
