What version of Quicktime do you have? I'm still on W7 but I have version 7.7.6 that I installed 5 years ago and don't have issues with mov files I use in other apps. I haven't used it recently in Studio, (I have 21), but don't recall any issues. Joe

Have you tried fast forwarding and then rewinding a tape before trying a transfer? It can't hurt to loosen them up a bit if they have sat for many years without being touched.  And they are subject to deterioration just from being in an uncontrolled environment such as humid areas or wide temperature changes.

I was curious about the OBS software so I took a quick look at a youtube tutorial for beginners. The instructor seemed to indicate you could record in mp4 format. Perhaps you can double check your settings. One other thought is to see if there's a utility for splitting your file into 2 or 3 shorter lengths before importing. It doesn't matter ...
