still working on things, heres an update:
still dropping about a dozen frames per 40minutes of capture, ive tried virtualdub and virtualvcr, both about the same, i tried capturing a dvd with virtualdub and only lost 7 frames in the same time span, premiere for some reason wont recognize my capture card yet.
im not sure im concerned about audio yet, seems like i can worry about that after im done with the video?
that being said, looks like i may have a lot of splicing to do, i captured about the first five minutes of faces side a and tried manually ivtc-ing it using offset 0-5. the screenshots all look very similar except for offsets 3 and 4 which had obvious scan lines and seemed to be introducing parts of the surrounding frames, im not sure if im imagining differences or if they are really there. not sure how this will play out with a longer sample, maybe 5 minutes and one frame worth isnt enough of a sample?
nother thing i was wondering, virtualdub has a "next drop frame" command, which appears to locate the position where the dropped frame is, but when i use it i would expect the spot to be blank or black or something, instead theres a normal frame there. not sure what this means but it does seem to help me in knowing when my ivtc will lose cadence
so here are my latest screenshots:

any advice much appreciated, thanks folks
