The playback on some of my audio files from minidv sounds like the "slowed down record" at places. The video seems to be fine, it's just issues with the audio. I checked my audio settings with the tutorial thread here on viritual dub and the only thing that is different is the raw compression format is 32000 vs 48000 but I do not see an option to change it.

When I play back the video in my camcorder, the audio is fine.

Any ideas?

Are you recording through firewire? I've had some trouble copying tapes that mix of 12-bit (32khz) and 16-bit (48khz) audio (miniDV can support both), the switch in audio format is not recorded and the whole stream plays as though the audio is the same rate all the way making it slow down or speed up. May have to stop and restart capture at those points if the capture program doesn't stop between the clips by itself.

This shouldn't be an issue if capturing via S-Video though, but that has other downsides.

yeah it's through firewire, but the same camcorder was used to film all of the footage so I don't know why it would be switching between the two. I doubt that setting was changed.

Did you try with WinDV? Never really tried VirtualDub with firewire capture.

I haven't tried that program. I know the gurus on here typically recommend viritualdub.

To clarify, you'll want to use VirtualDub when capturing analog video.

But for transferring digital video such as MiniDV through firewire, the best options are probably the freeware WinDV or the freeware Scenalyzer 3.5.

Thanks for that clarification. I will try windv and see if that fixes the issue.
