If you are dropping frames, then your hard drive can't keep up with the amount of video you are capturing. This is common when trying to capture to the internal hard drive of your computer. The hard drive isn't fast enough to write each frame of video to the disk and also read/write from the operating system files at the same time. You will need to get an external thunderbolt hard drive, preferably solid state (SSD). Also, make sure in the Media Express preferences that you are not trying to record in the "Uncompressed" codec.
You can also try running the included "Disk Speed Test" app that came with the Intensity to show you which video formats your hard drive(s) are fast enough to capture.
