Thanks very much for the comments " Dazzle = bad card ", the issues is that I can't find anyone that is able to document a successful work flow from beginning to end. Only little bits to the complex puzzle are disclosed. So I've been trying to create a work flow starting in October 2021, I've spent hrs here and on youtube, looking up QTGMC and AvsPmod deinterlacing, now this research went back even starting in 2013 but trying to find a workflow to deinterlace back then was impossible, well to attain QTGMC results. Any way I dedicated myself starting in October of 2021. Did a little research and found that I'd need a Win7 OS for capture, then from what found in actual youtube in depth demonstrations was the DVC-100 works with
VirtualDub. I've been getting decent S-Video quality with lossless codecs, but now I'm seeing that I'm have actual recoded frame rate issues that vary from 29.84 - 29.91. I've done testes in VirtualDub1 with the EZCrap and the DVC-100, the EZCrap will produce 29.97 actual frames, the DVC-100 indicates when checking in file manager or VLC media info it's a 29.97 clip. But when checking in QuickTime or FCP it will show the true capture 29.84 (again this varies). File manager and VLC just show what the setting were captured at 29.97, not the tre format it's in.
I've read the how to tutorials on this site, but can't find anything on this subject, this is going to cause issues when syncing 29.97 footage from 2 cameras. Anyway yes I feel the DVC-100 looks decent but will not work for backing up my 50 tape collection of home movies to 59.94p.
I've now been going down the Dimond VC500 train, again I can't find any videos with detailed info on a successful workflow from VHS, TBC, Capture card or USB dongle, to capture software and settings for lossless codecs.
"VirtualDub2 = almost always bad at capture, use the original VirtualDub 1.9.x"
Virtualdub1 made no difference in this regard to correcting the FPS to 29.97.
lordsmurf do you have any input on a workflow that will work with providing capture card/USB dongle models and settings used in software in order to de-interlace VHS-C, MiniDV, Hi8 footage? Even mentioning to compress for example to Apple Prores, things like that will help. I've wasted 100's of hrs coming back to square one.
