On the DSP/STATUS screen, the timecode is being received perfectly. When I move to the timeline (which contains only a copy of the current audio track for comparison), I find that I have to manually move the cursor to the beginning (or at least to a point before the time of my video) or the timeline will start where it previously left off and not sync to TC. Also, the syncing does not seem to be consistant. I'll get a set delay (which I can offset for) but every once in a while, the delay will be way off. Anyone else working with TC? Any suggestions?

I've done a little bit of MTC chasing too, with no problems, but I've generally preferred LTC as it seems to give a better lock and doesn't eat up MIDI bandwidth.

Is it possible that the problem is the 'midnight' problem? I.e., have you tried setting your timecode base to something like 1:00:00.00 instead of 0:00:00.00 to avoid possible negative values around the beginning of the timeline?
