      These are live off-air feeds?  There is always the possibility for errors in transmission from an off-air program.  And the longer it runs, the more likely for an error to occur.  Errors and signal dropouts can result in capture stoppages.
      I’d suggest ensuring the highest quality off-air signal in order to lessen the likelihood of errors.
      On a different topic, how are you doing, Keoni?  I have news . . .

      Anyone out there getting aborted CAPTURE when working with longer lengths: 65min ~ 5 hours+ ?  The error message of 'Capture stopped: Keep or Delete files' appears.  We have plenty of space on 15 drives; and have been capturing a lot of live, over-the-air broadcasts for Airchecks.  The time elapsed after start of capture varies: it can stop in as little as 20 minutes; or as long as 2.5 hours later.

      We don't let any other programs run during CAPTURES (we stop screen savers; stop Mac Spotlight Indexing; use CAFFEINE to ensure that display sleep or screen savers don't even have a change to begin; halt Microsoft services; quit Avid APP Manager and Background Services).

      I am sure this is rare a s most here are in post and mostly working with file-based media; or if capturing either LIVE or from TAPE, not doing it for more than 2 hours at a time.
