Hello,
I have the Canon HG10 and use the Blackmagic's "Intensity" High Definition HDMI Card with Final Cut 5.1 HD I capture the video uncompressed through HDMI it works great here's the link
http://www.blackmagic-design.com/products/intensity/ working with Mac Pro Intel 3.0. running Leopard, have installed three internal hard drives raid them together to run uncompressed video for edit. Hope this helps they are working on updates for the card to work with other software.
Hope This Helps
Have a good day guys

  • Importing 60i footage using log and transfer, not working :(

    Hi, when I import my 60 fps footage in to Final Cut Express using the log and transfer method (because the footage is AVCHD) it always changes the frame rate to 29.97 even if the frame rate is lower like 24 fps. I need this to be 60 frames per second because I'm working with a slow motion shot and need to get the most frames from the footage.

    Thanks, David,
    We had done all of those little tricks to no avail... but we did figure it out.
    It turns out it was a corrupted sequence that was causing the problems.
    Trashed the sequence, now everything's happy again.

  • Can't Import Sony AVCHD Using Log and Transfer

    HI
    I have been importing AVCHD footage from all kinds of cameras, mainly Panasonics for over 4 years now using Final Cut Pro 7.  I just got a new Sony NEX-EA50 but when I try to import the footage using Log and Transfer, it does not show up.  When I try to drop the card folder into the window I get the ""PRIVATE" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media." message.
      The only way I can import the footage is using Toast, but that is a pain in the *** because it is a hassle to rename and scan the clips before I import. 
    Does anybody know whats going on?  Did Sony purposely change their file directory system so it couldn't be read by FCP? 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
        What framerate did you shoot ?
    Log and Transfer will not recognise non standard frame rates such as 50 fps or 60fps. Toast, Clipwrap etc is an option but there is another. If you have the Panasonic AVCCAM importer Quicktime plug in, it will allow you to convert to Pro Res through Mpeg Streamclip or Compressor.

    Hang on, are you pointing log and transfer at the ROOT folder and not the folders inside.

    I cannot import my AVCHD files by using log and transfer. I can see all the files, but when I add the file to import que it doesnt work, the status is a red and says that its no data. I have tried with different cards and different cardreaders, but it is still the same. Why?!

    Please give us more specific information -
    What make/model camcorder are you using?
    Are you absolutely certain this is AVCHD video?  Tell us more about the video settings you used in the camcorder (eg, frame size, frame rate, quality level)
    Why are you attempting Log & Transfer from a card reader instead of from your camcorder?  Have you tried doing Log & Transfer from your camcorder?
    Are the SD cards straight from the camcorder, unaltered, or are you just using the cards as storage?
    Are you using FCE 4.0 or FCE 4.0.1?

  • Sync Audio using Log and Transfer

    Shot footage using Sony Ex-1, recorded audio separately on DAT. There is a Timecode jammed, as well as a clapper. Using Final Cut 6.06.
    Can I sync the audio and video before putting them in the bin? Is there a way to sync the audio and video using "Log and Transfer"?
    I'm trying to find a way to sync them so that it saves the video and audio as a separate movie file.

    You can't sync the files during log and transfer. You have to capture the audio and video seperately, then sync them using a process such as this: http://www.ericbrodeur.com/blog/2008/12/03/syncing-dailies-in-final-cut-pro/

  • Is there a way to import clips from AVCHD folders I have copied from my camcorder to my hard disk? With FCE I could import these clips using log and transfer.

    In FCP-X is there a way to import AVCHD clips from an AVCHD file folder I have copied from my Canon hard disk camcorder to my iMac hard disk?  With FCE I used log and transfer with no problem; but, FCP-X doesn't import them. It will import AIC files that have been created in FCE from the original AVCHD files.  If FCP-X will not import these files directly from the copied AVCHD folder, is there a workaround using other software to convert the files? For example, Compressor? (Canon does not provide any AVCHD conversion software for OSX).

    Hi jphil and Tom
    I have exactly the same problem but the answer you (Tom) provided did not help in my case. Trying to "Import ->From Camera" and pointing to the AVCHD folder yields the error message: "(Folder) contains unsupported files or has invalid directory structure."
    Folder structure is
    AVCHD
         BDMV
              CLIPINF
                   .CPI files
              Index.bdm
              Movieobj.bdm
              PLAYLIST
                   .MPL file
              STREAM
                   .MTS files
    AVF_INFO
         3 files (.bnp, .inp, .int)
    DCIM
         101MSDCF
              empty
         MODELCFG.IND (file)
    My question is: Is that not a "camera archive" of the type you talked about in the thread? Is it on principle not possible to import the files in that format/directory structure? If not, since the shots were not taken by myself, what should I ask the guy who shot the movies to give me to be able to work with them in FC?
    I work with a brand new Final Cut Pro X 10.0.4 (still very clumsy with it) on an iMac 11,3 with MacOS 10.6.8.
    I downloaded the latest version of codec updates from the Apple support site but no difference.
    Thank you in advance

  • Glitches Convertng AVCHD using Log and Transfer

    Hi, I'm converting a large batch of AVCHD to ProRes 422 using log and transfer for a project. I've converted almost all the footage, but have had to break down some longer clips because FCP7 won't convert the whole clip, it starts to act wonky. There is one large clip that I'm trying to convert a section of, that just won't convert and keeps giving me the annoying red exclamation point no matter what I do. I've tried changing the scratch disk, using the original name of the clip, unchecking "abort capture on dropped frames," changing the in and out on points--all the suggestions that I've found on discussion boards--nothing has worked. I've considered buying some external software, but am afraid the clip itself might be corrupted, though I've converted other sections of it with no problem. Any suggestions?

    Hi Michael, Thanks for the quick response. I copied the clip, the whole card  to a different internal drive and FCP crashed  when I tried to transfer a section the troublesome clip. Here's part of the report I got after the crash:
    Application Specific Information:
    *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSMallocException', reason: '*** -[NSConcreteMutableData appendBytes:length:]: unable to allocate memory for length (75356)'
    *** Call stack at first throw:
    The camera is the Sony NEX-FS700. As I said before, I'm baffled. I've transferred two other sections from this same clip and also from all the other clips from this card with no problem. It was a couple of months ago, but I've not changed any settings or preferences.

  • Canon 650D doesn't support FCP 7 log and transfer...

    Canon 650D doesn't support FCP 7 log and transfer...
    anyone know how to solve this problem?  thanks alot

    Download and install the latest version of the E-1 plugin from Canon’s website here:
    http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/eos_slr_camera_systems/eos_digita l_slr_cameras/eos_rebel_t4i#DriversAndSoftware
    If this didn't work, follow this creativecow post to modify cameras.plist file; if there's still no go, follow this guide to either modify the .plist file or convert your footage to Apple ProRes, the native editing format of Final Cut Pro. 
    Hope this helps

  • Cant import using Log and Transfer to FCE 4.0.1 from Panasonic DMC-TZ10

    Does anyone know if/how I can import into FCE 4.0.1 using Log and Transfer? I use Log and Transfer with my Sony HDR XR200VE Video Camera but when I try this with the Panasonic DMC-TZ10 I can play the clips in the Log and Transfer Clip viewer however they don't import after I add them to the queue. It just gives me an ! icon and gives up.
    I guess I need to know if there is a combination of camera settings and Codecs I can choose that will allow me to successfully import into FCE 4.0.1 using Log and Transfer.
    The settings I can choose on the DMC-TZ10 camera are the Rec Mode (Either AVCHD Lite (GPS Rec), AVCHD Lite, or Motion JPEG) and the Rec Quality SH, H or L).
    iPhoto 09 and iMovie 09 will automatically import video from this camera if I choose Motion JPEG and H on the DMC-TZ10

    Log and transfer only supports AVCHD. It does not support AVCHD Lite, nor will it work with Motion JPEG media. You could use third party software to convert it, or iMovie and then export a QuickTime movie from there in the correct codec and format.

  • I have footage shot on a p2 camera, why won't all of the clips transfer when using Log and Transfer?

    Only about 60% of the clips transferred over or was shown in the Log and Transfer window.

    Offload the cards...back them up.  That is priority #1.  Do that first...then return the camera.  Then try mucking about with this.
    Back up the ENTIRE card structure.

  • Best way to import MTS (AVCHD)/missing clips using Log and Transfer

    My footage (Sony HDR 500) of an average project consists of approximately 10 hours film and 1600 clips. When I use the option Log and Transfer to import in FCE not all clips are imported in FCE. All other clips are consecutively numbered and cannot be compared with the numbering of the clips on the camera anymore. As a result it is, with those large amounts of clips, almost impossible to find out which clips are missing.
    Importing takes a very long time (is that normal?) so I would like to run this proces at night, but due to this missing clips problem I am afraid to do this so it is not a good option for me. Does anyone recognize this problem?
    To avoid all this I now convert all clips with Voltaic to .mov before importing. At least I know for sure that I have all clips imported, but it is so cumbersome and it takes a lot of time too. This proces I do in steps because I am afraid to start everything at once. After converting the project almost takes 120 GB.
    It takes days before everything is imported and that frustrates me. If the same material is imported in Edius for example it only takes an hour (tested) so it appears to be an FCE/Apple problem. Is there any way to accelerate?
    I am working with an iMac from 2010, 2,8GHz quadcore i7, 16GB intern geheugen met snow leopard.
    I hope someone can help me out.
    Thanks, Jacqueline

    While I have not seen the exact problem you describe, 1600 clips is a lot of clips to import at once - so is 10 hours of video.
    If you are using FCE to Log & Transfer directly from the camera, your clips are automatically being transcoded to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec(AIC) during importing, which explains the long time it takes to ingest the clips.
    Also, QT/AIC files are much, much larger than the AVCHD clips in your camera.  If you are shooting 1920x1080 video, 10 hours of AVCHD translates into roughly 450GB of QT/AIC clips.  It is possible that you may be a) running out of disk space, or b) exceeding the scratch disk minimum allowable free space set in FCE > System Settings.  If so, that could explain why not all your clips are being imported - FCE is probably stopping the Log & Transfer process when it hits the disk space limit.
    Regarding alternatives, I'm not so sure about Voltaic.  The Voltaic documentation says it only supports H.264 in QT/.mov files, and that would not be usable in FCE.  Check some of those clips to see what codec they are.  I suspect they are H.264.  (Also, you referred to the converted clips taking 120GB space, which just happens to match the AVCHD storage capacity of your camera ... and AVCHD is a form of H.264 video, so they take up about the same disk space.)
    In order to edit your clips in FCE, they need to be QT/AIC.  Two alternatives come to mind - Clipwrap and MPEG Streamclip.  Both can convert AVCHD video to QT/AIC, and both support batch conversion.  If it were me, I'd consider Clipwrap first, for this volume of material, since Clipwrap was specifically designed for AVCHD.
    The reason importing is so much faster in Edius is that it can import & directly edit AVCHD clips; Edius basically just copies the clips from the camera to your hard drive.  FCE has to convert the clips to QT/AIC first, before you can edit the video, and that takes considerable time.

  • Is Premiere able to "capture" tapeless footage/P2 (log and transfer)?

    Hi! Does anyone know if Premiere Pro CS5 is able to "capture" my P2 files from my Panasonic, without a need to transfer all the raw P2 material from the card to my hard drive? So the thing is, I don't want to edit my P2 footage as they're, but to convert them to either mov, or mp4. PLUS I want to be able to trim and rename my newmade files.
    So basically I just need a log and transfer (Finalcut) kind of feature for Premiere.
    Now I'll explain you why.
    1. Let's say we had a filming where we were to shoot continuously two hours shot. So I have only one clip. About 60GB.
    2.I personally need only five seconds of those two hours.
    That should be enough reason. I hope you understood my point of view. Please don't ask me how this happened...
    Plus more reasons: In our company we need to have all the footage and materials converted as .mov, wmv or mp4  for storaging and documenting everything.
    This should be quite a simple problem but,... they always are. If there's no easy solution with Premiere, I hope you can point me a simple, easy program to do this. And working. (Otherwise we have to get some more Finalcuts, log and transfer, and then import our files in Premiere... Quite a hard way to do it)
    Thank you
    Timo Kankkunen

    @native-lovers:
    You guys didn't seem to understand that we need to have all the footage storaged as something else than P2-files. Dot.
    @shooternz:
    Hey thanks for that P2Forge link. That's quite useful. At least it's able to play the video (unlike AME). Plus that it should be able to trim the videos (though I haven't got it working yet). So maybe that'll solve my problems.
    @joshtownsend:
    Well, maybe I should give Premiere a second change, but I doupt the workflow is going to be quite a slow when having dozens of clips. Would it be something like this?
    Premiere + AME workflow:
    1. Double click the video from media browser to show it in source window
    2. space to play, i to in and o to out.
    3. drag to timeline
    4. some shortcut to export?
    5. paste filename with ending 001 and change the number when needed (I guess Premiere doesn't do it automatically does it?)
    (5.5 The first time choose the right preset and output folder.)
    6. some shortcut to export with AME (or just clicking the button)
    And back to the number one... (AME running on the background)
    Has anyone ideas to fasten this up? Like some magical way to jump over numbers 3, 4? And have the automatical numbering?
    (Sorry I don't have Premiere with me right now so this came out of my memory).
    Maybe that wouldn't be too bad after all (having all the shortcuts...).

  • While using Log and Transfer, firewire cable got yanked. Help!?!

    While in the middle of transferring clips from my camera into my fcp project, the firewire cable got yanked. After retoring the project and recconecting the media, Log and Transfer wont import the clips from the camera anymore. The clips play in the preview window fine, and I even saved the media to a new location and tried to Log and Transfer again but every time I just get a red stop sign with an exclamation point error, with no explanation. What good is an error sign first of all without any explanation Apple?  I've also even tried starting a new project to start fresh, but FCP won't transfer the clips. I had this problem once before and it was a lack of hard disk space, but I have at least 65GB left on the Macbook, and about the same on the scratch disk.
    Anyone know how to make it work? Thanks!

    DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK, always best to clone a backup before taking radical steps. You could also try booting to single user mode first (hold shift on start up) that can clear some cache issues up.
    Just a wild thought - perhaps a large temp file was created during capture that was not deleted. You would probably want to show your hidden files (google can show you how, involves terminal), and look for a very large temp file on your drive, it would probably be in the same folder you were capturing to, but could also be at the root of your system drive. Their could be some other large temp files too, like a sleep file for instance.
    DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK, always best to clone a backup before taking radical steps.
    good luck!

  • Very very slow import using LOG and Transfer

    I am using a CANON VIXAIA HF10.and the clips are importing very very slow. The max time on each clip is only 5 min or so. Is there a way to speed this up? Thanks.

    Log and transfer only supports AVCHD. It does not support AVCHD Lite, nor will it work with Motion JPEG media. You could use third party software to convert it, or iMovie and then export a QuickTime movie from there in the correct codec and format.
