Vegas script to replace bad frame with previous frame: I think the problem is that the next several frames after the glitch are also tainted. Strangely, if I created duplicated elsewhere in the clip, it replaced those and the playback was near-perfect. I am actually puzzled as to why it didn't work well here, and even spent fifteen minutes debugging my script to see if there was a flaw. The synthesized frame doesn't look too good in this case, but I can absolutely guarantee that in many cases it produces a perfect result - not "near" perfect, but perfect. Here's a file with the fix done with the duplicate frame approach, and also done with the synthesized frame approach. Thus, the duplicate frame approach probably is going to be a better approach. I tried it on your video, but it didn't work too well because your glitch actually causes the next 2-3 frames to be shifted slightly and also to be somewhat darker.

You have to know AVISynth to use this one, and you have to download MVTools2 (get the "2" version). I've been after Sony for years (back when they still had people there actually developing features) to add this. This uses the magic of motion estimation to reconstruct the bad frame from the two good frames on either side. Now, if your bad frame is "clean," meaning that it doesn't leave some residual artifacting that affects the next few frames, you can go one step further, and in many cases make the bad frame look identical to what should have been there. Then, position the cursor so you can see the bad frame, and then press the key. I then used an old Vegas script I wrote many years ago that lets me replace a bad frame with the previous frame (which is exactly what ECB and DGates are recommending).
I wasn't about to re-do the whole capture, so I invented an AVISynth script that detected each bad frame. Unfortunately, my Workprinter capture rig had a minor malfunction, and I ended up with about three hundred individual bad frames, scattered across ten hours of video. I just finished converting 100 reels of 8mm and Super8 film.
