How do I 'Log and Transfer' 1080/ 60P from my Panasonic TM700 camera?

"How do I 'Log & Transfer' my 1080/ 60 Progressive format from my Panasonic TM 700 HD camera?

If you have FCP X 10.0.5 you do it the normal way.
However, if you also have normal AVCHD on the same card you probably won't be able to do it easily.
1080/60p should be shot separately.

Log and Transfer 1080/24pA

Quick question...I'm importing video shot on a FS-100 Firestore drive that was recorded at 1080/24pA...now I know that I have to do a pulldown removal, but I was under the impression that I'd be given that option in the log and transfer window. Is this something that needs to be manually done or does FCP automatically recognize and remove the frames during the transfer?
Thanks!

IN the L&T window, you click on the Sprocket drop down menu, then choose PREFERENCES. Make sure PULLDOWN REMOVAL is checked. If so, you are golden.

Log and Transfer in FCP7 from Firestore HD100

I recently did the upgrade from FCP6 to FCP7 in order to take advantage of the log and transfer capability for file based media. I have a JVC HD200 camera with a Firestore MR-HD100 drive attached. I have as yet had no luck at all getting FCP7 to recognize a file from the HD100 drive in any configuration.
Am I missing something or will the FCP7 log and transfer application not work with files generated with this drive?

No, we DO get the point. We know exactly what you want to do...you just chose a shooting format that doesn't do what you want to do. If you wanted that functionality you should have chosen to shoot on tape, P2, SxS, or SD card. Or used the firestore with a P2 camera and shot using the P2 file structure. You chose a camera that shoots directly to QT and therefore does not have that functionality.
As it is you have to retain all of the original file at full size and archive that.
Because you chose a shooting format in which you have to do that.
I chose the particular format because it offered me a specific set of features that suited my shooting needs.
What are those features that any other of the cameras that shoot to tape, P2, SxS or SD card don't offer?
That doesn't mean that I have to accept that Apple is not doing their job in covering all aspects of the professional film and editing world and making an interface addition that is substandard.
OK, name ONE NLE that would do what you want with the format you chose to shoot? Avid? Nope. Premiere...nope. Vegas? Nope. Edius? Nope. So is EVERYONE out there not doing their job in this case? No. You chose a format that is NOT suited to doing what you wanted to do. That is no ones fault but your own.

Will I be able to import 1080/60P from my Panasonic TM900K directly into FCPX?

I understand that there are limitations with the codec in importing 1080/60P video in native format, directly from my camera. I've seen comments that this may be remedied through Final Cut Pro X, but have yet to see any definitive response. Can anyone confirm that FCPX will handle direct import of full resolution video without converting or reducing to 1080i or less?

Anyone who knows cannot say, or risk spending the rest of their life in court.

AVCHD Log and Transfer Woes. Please advise.

Folks, I am using the latest version of FInal Cut (7.02) to log and transfer AVCHD content from a Panasonic Lumix GH1. Many clips get imported but many stop with errors ( a stream error as note by a exclamation mark in a red alert icon in the status column) even though they play back in the log and transfer window, VLC, Toast 10.
I've had to resort to using Toast 10 to transcode which is disheartening that it can and FCP can't. Plus it's slow. Another strange thing is that in FCP the number of clips that are successfully transcoded outnumber the number of clips for the same reel in Log and Transfer.
Per some other message board to troubleshoot, I've updated my FxFactory plugin app, uninstalled Perian, deactivated the pulldown feature in Log and Transfer, and changed the AVCHD audio settings to plain stereo. None of these efforts has changed the stream errors I am getting.
I could use some advice on this.

L&T and Lumix GH1 footage needs the file structure in the 'PRIVATE' folder intact.
So don't delete a single thing in there from the computer - if you want to remove clips you must do it from the camera. And when doing back-ups to a harddrive, copy the entire PRIVATE folder and again, don't change anything in there once it's on the harddrive. Then L&T can still access the clips, you don't have to do it from the SDHC card.
And don't include photo captures.

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.

Log and Transfer window doesn't recognize Samsung SC-HMX20

The camera does appear on the desktop however, so I can navigate to the video folder on the camera and upload the video files to my computer, which I can then edit in FCE.
Is this the correct workaround?
Also, anyone working with this camera (I shoot at 1080/30p) and FCE?
Would appreciate any comments on your particular workflow in FCE - from getting your footage off the camera, to what settings you use in FCE.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for replying, but I don't think that this is the issue (the files play back fine on the camera - also I can manually move them from the camera storage into fce - it's the Log and Transfer function that won't recognize my camera).
As a side note, when I use the Log and Transfer function, I get an error message that reads: Warning - "Video" (+the folder on the camera that has my video files+) contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media"
I suppose if someone could explain that error message in plain english then I might get somewhere ...

Missing Log and Transfer Clip Browsing window

Help!!!
I was using log and transfer to import videos. My daughter came along and clicked somewhere in the log and transfer window. Now all I see is the right handside pane of a particular clip. I lost the left hand side where I see the list of clips from my media. How do I get it back?
Thanks

Hi -
Did she accidentally swipe it to the side?
There is a pane size bar in the middle of the window, if that gets dragged to the right the preview window will be hidden:
!http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/L%26TPreWindow2.jpg!
Grab it with your cursor and pull it back to the center

Ok.. more testing and research.
Final Cut Express doesn't support AVCHD Lite.
iMovie (my version is '09 - 8.0.5) does import AVCHD Lite directy from my TZ7.
Since iMovie is nice, but offers a bit less then FCE I just imported the clips from the TZ7 into iMovie, moved all imported clips to the timeline and exported a Final Cut XML. This one I imported into FCE and voila.. realtime editing with FCE of the clips from my TZ7.
A bit strange, that FCE doesn't support AVCHD Lite.. but the way through iMovie is doable.

AVCHD log and transfer - Only from a camera?

I am thinking about upgrading my camera to a AVCHD camera. I saw on a post that you can only log and transfer AVCHD footage from the camera and not just the card attached via card reader. Can someone shed some light on this. I want to be able to shoot, transfer/backup onto an external HDD and then Log and Transfer from the drive. I want to keep the camera busy out in the field and not tied up on my desk.
Thanks community!
Brian

When using card readers make sure it supports the larger capacity cards or at least the size card you are using.

I cannot log and transfer clips that are longer than 5 minutes.

Hello,
I am trying to log and transfer several clips from my Canon Vixia HF S11 camcorder. When I attempt to transfer a clip into Final Cut Express that is longer than 5 minutes, it stops right when it is about to finishe and says, "Unknown Error." Due to the volume of my HD footage, I am working on an external hard drive with ample space. Could this be the problem? Should I attempt to transfer these longer clips onto my MacBook hard drive? Thank you very much for you help.
-Samantha

Use Disk Utility (in your Applications>Utilities folder) to erase the drive and reformat as Mac OS Extended. There are differing opinions regarding whether or not you should select journaling. With media drives, I tend not to. (This process will, of course, erase what's on the drive presently.)

Issue with XDCam log and transfer update

I'm trying to install Sony's XDCAM EX Log and Transfer Plug-in, and only can get as far as the "Destination Select" tab, where I'm informed that it "can't be installed on this disk. Final Cut Pro 6.0.3 or higher is recommended for this software."
I just installed Final Cut Pro 7 yesterday.
... what gives? Do I even need this update to be able to manage the videos from my PMW EX1r? I was unable to use them in final cut pro when I tried earlier, and was led to that "Log and Transfer Plug-in" from Sony and told it was the solution, which now won't allow me to even install it.

You have a number of options, make sure you have the latest Sony XDCAM EX Log and Transfer plug in (v1.2) also grab Sony's XDCAM Transfer (v2.12) which you can use instead of the aforementioned L&T plug in. Plus there is Sony's Clip Browser app (v2.6) for checksum validated offloading of the media from the camera/cards ... and now there is a brand new app called Sony XDCAM Browser (v1.0) which is designed to combine/consolidate the functions of the various utilities into one single handy dandy app. Unfortunately in this first release it has far inferior functionality as compared to what can be managed with the separate apps.
All of the above can be most easily downloaded (requires no registration) from Sony's Canadian website:

Red Footage turning green on Log and Transfer

I'm trying to log and transfer some footage shot on a Red camera. I've got the plug in. When I capture, it works for a little while, then all the footage turns solid green! I can see green in the Log and Transfer window too. I've tried this on two computers and I am getting the same thing happening. I've got all the raw footage saved on an internal hard drive. Any ideas?

I don't know why your footage is green.
Is your footage on an internal drive which is different than your OS drive?
Why are you not using RedCineX Pro for transcoding? It's a much better workflow for Red to FCP7.

Must I "Log and Transfer" from Canon HG 10?

I have a Canon HG 10 (which is an HDD camcorder) and I'm using a 2.2 ghz macbook pro with OS 10.5.6. I can open the camera's disk image on my desktop and copy the "AVCHD" folder to my hard disk, and everything seems to be there. Question: can I simply navigate to the video clip folder and import the clips into FCE, or would it be more complicated?
In the past, if I copy the "AVCHD" folder to my hard disk, and then make a disk image out of it, imovie has treated the disk image like a camcorder (I haven't tried this yet with FCE), but I'd rather not have to make the AVCHD folder into a disk image-- doesn't seem like this should be necessary. Thanks

I want to keep a duplicate of the camera's information, before it is imported into FCE. I can log and transfer from the camera, but I'd like to keep an exact duplicate of the video camera's disk information on another hard disk even after it has been deleted from the camera. Also, it seems to not take nearly as long to open the camera's disk image and copy the files than it takes to log and transfer into FCE, from the camera, so apparently I don't have to keep the camera connected to the computer as long as long as I can retrieve the files from the copy later.

Log And Transfer - HDR-SR12 - Surround Sound

Hi, is it possible to get surround sound via Log and Transfer in FC from Sony HDR-SR12? I have no problems to get video and stereo, but when I record surround on the camera and try to import it to FC, I get "Audio is mixed down to stereo" message in Log And Transfer Import Setting.
Thanks.

Shouldn't be the same size of the file in the camera?
Hey Nicko,
No mate. The camera format is a heavily compressed MPEG4 variant (AVCHD). This is a modern acquisition format, and not a camera native edit format supported directly within FCP. The AVCHD support offered by FCP is through Log and Transfer which transcodes the files to a more edit friendly format that you can work with. The choices at present are AIC and ProRes. You could recompress them again if you wanted to a more compressed (smaller) format, but you'd lose time and quality, and disc space is cheap these days.

How do I 'Log and Transfer' 1080/ 60P from my Panasonic TM700 camera?
