Hey all, this is a virgin post by me, and i wish to ask all of you a question i had in mind, is there a solution for dropping frames, im currently transfering the vid through IEEE 1394 cable, and i have a 80 gigabyte hard drive, using a sony HCR-42E digital camocorder. Everytime i tried to capture the video on my dv to my computer i will drop frame, is there any way to counter this? Opinion would greatly be appreciated, i really hope to solve this problem fast as i am going to enter a competition soon. Thank all in advance

firewire should never drop frames. What's your pc spec? What app are you using to transfer the video?
Have you defragged?

I have tryed windv and dvio but it still drops frames, i can see that they drop frames after 7 to 8 second of no dropping framse and the rate of it is horrific, almost every frame were dropped? What could be the problem, could it be my processor, as it is a celeron D processor instead of a pentium 1.

Are you using just one hard drive ? Better with 2 one for your operating system and programmes and a video drive. Have you any anti virus software running in the background ? Press control alt delete just once and see whats running in the background. Have you got few editing programmes on your PC because Prem never sat too well with Eduis. On the Matrox RT2000 with prem there was one CD ripping programme that completey buggered the job up , but we have come along way since then thank god.
