Capture Error Message: Tape Trouble--Check VTR

On certain sections of different Digital Betacam source tapes (via SDI and RS422 deck control--Sony J-30 deck @ DVC Pro 50 resolution) I get the following error message:
"Tape trouble--check VTR. Do no attempt to eject tape or use transport without checking VTR first."
The tape keeps running with this message up on the screen but the drive has stopped capturing. There are no timecode skip warnings and no other indications. Was wondering if this message is generated by Kona (will check with AJA on Monday) or FCP? I have successfully captured other sections from the same tape. Tape dub stock is brand new.
Perhaps the warning is correct and some anomally is being detected on the tape at only certain capture points on the same tape. There are no error messages on the deck display which tells me the deck & tape are actually ok. These pro decks are pretty good at letting you know if there's a tape slack, tape moisture or control track problem. But has anyone else experienced this and have knowledge about it?
Thanks
Steve

Sounds like the VCR is sending false signals, or they are true, and you just don't see the problem when the deck sends the message to FCP.... I'd be prone to start trouble shooting this by resetting all the parameters of the playback machine in it's on screen menu etc... I'd suppose too that if there is the slightest error being detected, the deck will kick out the capture process. So might need to have the deck sent to maintenance.

  • Error Message "Tape Trouble - Check VTR"

    I am using a Panasonic VTR AJ-D450(via Component and RS422 deck control @ DVC Pro 50 resolution) capturing with a Blackmagics Extreme HD and I get the following error message:
    "Tape trouble--check VTR. Do no attempt to eject tape or use transport without checking VTR first."
    The tape keeps running with this message up on the screen but the drive has stopped capturing. There are no timecode skip warnings and no other indications.
    The main problem is that the capture using Blackmagic Deck Control is perfect, this message appears only in the FC2 capture. In another topic, Aja resolved this issue with a patch.
    There are no error messages on the deck display which tells me the deck & tape are actually ok. But has anyone else experienced this and have knowledge about it?
    Thanks
    Andre

    Hello Guys,
    Thank you for the support, I had solved the problem using the Keyspan USB where the Final Cut 2 started to capture the image normally.
    I am not sure now about the compatibility between Blackmagics Decklink and RS422 of Panasonic VTRs.

  • Tape trouble check vtr

    when i am logging and capturing, capturing stops and i get the message tape trouble check vtr. i read some post that it was an AJA problem and i called their tek support and they sent me the pulling txt file to put in my pluggins folder and the problem still is going on. i also uninstalled and reinstalled the AJA software. i am using a panasonic aj-sd930 dvc pro 50 deck running through the AJA IO using fcp 6.i have also trashed my prefs and still nothing. is there someting i'm missing?

    I'm having the same problems but with a very different configuration. We tried everything from changing the wiring to trying a different setup for the capturing video card and no luck. At long last, trashing the preferences allowed us to digitize for 10 minutes straight instead of 2 minutes bits. Wether it was just a lucky break or really a temporary fix remains to be determined.
    Btw, to which codec are you digitizing to?

    Go to Wifi    Settings and then select your Wifi Network. Tap the blue arrow to go into Wifi settings and then select the DNS tab.
    Set the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and then go back to the software update page.
    This time it shall work.
    I tried it on an iPad 1 running iOS 5.0.1 but I am sure this shall help.
    Do rate me and reply if it works.

  • Facing problem while capturing error messages in ME51N

    Hi Experts,
    In ME51N transaction, we have included custom fields and tried to capture Error messages by building ex_message.
    Below is the code that we used:
             loop at tb_error into wa_error.
                wa_message-type   = WA_ERROR-TYPE.
                wa_message-id     = c_zpr.
                wa_message-number = '007'.
                 wa_message-message    = wa_error-message.
              wa_message-message_v1 = WA_ERROR-MESSAGE.
                wa_message-message_v2 = wa_eban1-bnfpo.
                APPEND WA_MESSAGE TO EX_MESSAGES.
                CLEAR WA_ERROR.
              endloop.
    In my message class we have not hardcoded the messages because we need to capture dynamic messages(In message class it is 007: & & ). For that we have passed message text in wa_message-message.
    But when Check button is selected, we are not the desired error message.
    But if we pass the same message in Message_v1, we are getting the error message but it is getting truncated as the size is small when compared to Message field.
    Waiting for your response.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Amarnath

    Looks like configuration prob.
    Have you tried jms examples of weblogic ? you may need to re-configure your server setup, to create example server.

  • Mac OS X 10.6.8, receiving error message "Failed to check for updates. The operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted." How to fix?

    When I try to update my software, I'm receiving the error message "Failed to check for updates. The operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted."
    I'm using Safari 4.0.3. Yes, I know this is an old version of Safari - I can't update it, or any other software on my MacBook. Should I just wait for the Lion OS, or is there any kind of fix a non-technical Mac user like me can attempt without screwing up her laptop?
    I've tried clearing my cache and resetting Safari already - doesn't help. I've also tried to update after disabling my (Norton) antivirus software, thinking that might be interfering. None of these help.
    I don't know if it's a related problem, but also I can't download .pdf files from the internet, although I used to be able to.

    You should use the NortonAV uninstaller to uninstall it. Disabling the dreadful thing in the past hasn't always been sufficient for it to cease creating system havoc. The Mac NortonAV version has a long and well-earned reputation for doing truly seriously nasty things to OS X. Shame on Comcast for inflicting NortonAV on its Mac customers. It's not a matter of if NortonAV will mess up OS X but when and how badly. I can't help but wondering if some setting in your Norton AV has decided that NortonAV, rather than you, will be making executive decisions about what you are allowed to install on your computer and is keeping that fact a secret.
    After you are done uninstalling Norton use the finder to search for any Norton files that the uninstaller might have missed. Add the option to search for invisible files.
    After you have removed all the Norton bits and pieces restart in safe mode by holding down the shift key right after the startup chime. Keep holding down the shift key until you see the Apple logo and spinning gear. Safe mode does some maintenance tasks which means a much longer than normal startup time. Use Disk Utility to repair permission
    If your Mac works normally in safe mode restart. If things still aren't fixed you might want to give another shot at reinstalling Snow Leopard from the install DVD and applying the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo before taking your Mac to the Apple Store.
    If you feel the need to run AV software on your Mac use ClamXav in manual mode. It's donationware and doesn't seem to cause the litany of weird problems that are associated with other AV software.

  • Error message: "Remove and check cartridge"--what should I do? (officejet 6110xi all-in-one)

    I got a printer (as above) in a yard sale.  When I first turned it on, it had an error message: "Remove and check cartridge".  I pulled out and looked at the cartridge, nothing seemed wrong (except perhaps the mildly inexplicable twist tie). Then I tried cleaning the contacts, did a hard restart, and looked for damage to the flex (there was none I could see), as suggested here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-printing-questions/Need-help/m-p/71/highlight/true#M8
    Still no love.

  • How to capture error message from standard function module

    Dear friends
    when i  execute standard function module in finance , i am getting error message , pls check the below screen shot,
    how to capture the below error message so that i have display in my webdynpro component
    Thanks
    Vijaya

    Hello Vijaya,
    Incase of BAPI's they have a return table parameter T_RETURN. Just read that return table to get the error message.
    Incase of normal function modules, there will be exceptions raised for the message used inside the function module. Just read the sy-subrc after the FM and based on the sy-subrc value find the respective exception raised.
    May be you can try like this, whenever the message is raised it will be stored in the system variable.
    CALL FM.
    check for the system variables.
    sy-msgid = Message ID of the latest message raised.
    sy-msgno = message number of the latest message raised.
    sy-msgty = message type of the latest message raised.
    sy-msgv1 = variable1 of the latest message raised.
    sy-msgv2 = variable2 of the latest message raised.
    sy-msgv3 = variable3 of the latest message raised.
    sy-msgv4 = variable4 of the latest message raised.
    Regards,
    TP
