I am very fortunate to have a JVC S-VHS machine with DigiPure processing and a Sony Hi-8 camcorder with dynamic noise reduction, both with built-in timebase correction, so I have never run into such a serious frame drop problem. From your description of the problem it sounds like the camcorder may have been dropped.Д¬huck, using WinDV I have noticed as many as 100 dropped frames at the beginning of a tape or between shots during a tape run but capturing an hour tape with 3000 to 4000 dropped frames seems like the video would be largely unwatchable with tearing and so on. Tapes shot in Standard-Play' should be interchangeable but those shot in Long-Play may not always interchange even when new because of tolerances. The term is 'interchange' and refers to a mechanical standard that should allow playback of any tape shot with the same designated standard. Rusty, if the camcorder has ever been dropped then the mechanism may be out of alignment.

If so, I may have to try a professional service to capture them. WIll try shooting some new Vidoe 8 footage with the Sony camera tonight (he had a packaged blank Video 8 tape in the camera bag) and see if it plays back okay. I tried a number of my tapes, which, other than age, ought to be in decent shape.

and the audio is pretty much a completely unintelligible garbled mess. The playback, both in the veiwfinder and when connected to a TV, are very poor with all kids of static and interference, flickering, etc. Now I have to deal with the problem that my brother's Sony Video 8 camera, that appears to be in excellent shape, doesn't want to play my Video 8 tapes that I believe were shot on a Ricoh camera that isn't around anymore.

It is amazing how much knowledge and willingness to help there is out there in Muvipix-land! Thanks SO much for all the help everyone! I will digest it and then buy something, probably up the foodchain a bit from the ADS Pyro.
