My setup is:

Playing VHS tapes on a Sony VHS/DVD combo with component jacks running into a Sony DCR-TRV 340 Camcorder and then via firewire into my Windows 7, capturing into WinDV.

The biggest issue I've noticed is dropped frames- 33 frames dropped over the course of a 2 hour tape, another tape dropped 14 frames. This causes it to go out of sync. Is this the result of my computer? The tapes? I'm not sure how these dropped frames can be avoided and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Another issue are these moving lines going up and down the screen. I've attached a video below that shows it. Adjusting the tracking doesn't seem to solve the issue. I first saw this issue in OBS but it's still happening in WinDV. Can anyone help identify these lines so I know what's causing them?

Thanks so much!!
