Log and transfer clip setting over clip #100 +

When I selected all clips on log and transfer, they stop at Clip #99. It could not transfer more than #100. I had to rename to a, b, c, etc. Is there any preferance settings to accept over #100? I want to keep them in order.

All cards start with #1? I don't see "#1" anywhere.
I see the clip names, like 0001MS, 0002Z8 and so on. And VOLUME NAME is the name of the card or name of the folder you put the card in. The second card MIGHT start again with 0001, but have another code, like "0001GU, 0002B2" and so on. Because that it the first one on that card. IF a shot spanned from one card to the next, the number scheme would continue, like you are seeing. 0057HW, 0058J9, something to that effect.
This is the way P2 names clips, and there is nothing you can do to change this. Import them, and then rename them...fine.
Are you saying that it can't go beyond shot 100? 0100YU, but no 0101IK? P2 can go to 999.

  • 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.

    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.)

  • 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

    Hope this helps.

  • Log and Transfer - Clip Sorting Issue

    Hello. I have been using an AVCHD camera for some time now, and when I would use the Log And Transfer the clips would show up in the order they were recorded. I accidentally pressed a tab at the top to sort a different way, and now I can't get back to how it was. See http://dcdl.info/20100212171440.png for a screenshot. I know it has to do with how the clips are automatically named.
    If anyone can help me with this, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

    Just a thought!
    Right-click on the "Name" field and check "Date Created" in the drop-down list. If you now sort using the Date Created column, will this reorder the clips as you want them? If not, are there any other options in the list that might?

  • Log and Transfer Clips are in order from name, not actual time of recording

    When I first installed my Final Cut Express HD and went to Log and Transfer, the clips were organized properly (#1 #2 #3 etc.), but one time I accidentally hit the "Name" column at the top, which then put all the clips in order by name (#1 #10 #11). This makes things a lot harder for me when I only need to select certain clips. I've tried re-installing the program, but to no avail. Can someone please help me get this back to the order in which the clips were first recorded?

    I found out the problem.  The controls do not work if the AVCHD footage is in SD.  They do appear if footage is in HD.

  • Spanned Clip will not log and transfer

    The editor:
    Mac Pro 10.4.11
    FCP 6.0.2.
    Quicktime Version 7.4.1 (14)
    30 minutes of video shot to a P2 card on an HVX200 is unable to log and transfer. Plays fine in the browser and on camera.
    Workflow tried:
    Write protect P2 and connect HVX200 to Mac via firewire.
    Set scratch disk, then log and transfer (clip says spanned).
    Error (red caution sign, tried retry, same error).
    Tried P2CMS to ingest footage on a firewire drive, then log and transfer, same error.
    Any suggestions?

    One word for ya: Raylight.
    I had the same problem. I tried P2CMS, renaming, and any trick I could think of. Raylight to the rescue. It creates a "pointer" MOV file to the actual P2 media and then you simply import the Raylighted MOV files into FCP. No data loss, and way quicker than a P2 transfer.
    Well worth the money.

  • FCP7 Log and Transfer, Unsupported Media . . .

    Last night I used two different SDHC cards in my Canon Vixia HFS100.  FCP7 will import clips via Log and Transfer from one, but not the other.  It just ignores everything on it (but I have 1.4 GB of recordings on it). 
    When I copy the card to a hard drive and point Log and Transfer to that folder, I get the message "CANON contains  unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure"
    Before using this card, I did a full initization of the card.  I compared the directory structures of the two.  They appear identical.  I haven't messed with either in the Finder.
    How do I tell what is wrong?  How do I fix it?  Or should I just try converting with something like Voltaic?  I'm an FCP beginner.  So, I would rather not stray too far from its work flow.
    Thanks!

    On the card that you are having trouble with:
    1) make sure there are no still images
    2) make sure there is no non-hd video (log and transfer works with AVCHD HD video clips, not MPEG SD clips)
    3) if possible, all the hd video clips should be of one quality/size/format setting
    4) in the log and transfer window, click on the gear shaped icon in the top center of the screen to set the Log and Transfer Preferences:
    Set the Import Preferences for AVCHD to Plain Stereo:
    Click OK, then restart FCP, reconnect the camera and try again.

  • Log and transfer audio channels

    Is there a way in "Log and transfer" to set the transfer of audio tracks to two for all clips instead of setting it one at a time?

    it's in the capture settings.
    Go back and look at your presents. You're probably using a preset that someone switched to one, and then saved. Your question is the opposite of the norm. The norm is: multiple channels and how do I get it to be one?
    And if you're already logged. When you go to batch capture you can uncheck the "use logged settings" and select the correct preset. That should do it.

  • Log and transfer 8mm

    I recently upgraded to fcp 7.0.2 with os 10.6.5. In the past I have "captured" analog clips from a sony 8 mm handycam. I'm using a firewire to connect. I'm trying to work around not using imovie. When I log and transfer, easy set up ntsc, dv-stsc and all rates, I receive a message "waiting four timecode. Device must be in VTR mode when device control is enabled." When I use non-controllable device, I can capture, but it comes in.
    My question is.... Am I not using the right setup, or can I only use "non-controllable device". Also, when I tried to find the dv start and stops to break down into individual clips, it says there are none.

    You are correct in using non controllable device. Because of this choice their will be no start stop detect because non controllable creates a new timecode and doesn't use the source timecode.

  • 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.

  • Canon HF-10: Log and Transfer AVCHD Problem

    When I try to Log and Transfer clips from my HF-10 on my Mac Pro (Intel, Dual-Quad Core) I get the following message "AVCHD media is unsupported on PowerPC based hardware." even though the machine is an intel-mac.
    When I do it on my Mac Book Pro (Intel, Dual-Core) it works fine in Log and Capture.
    Can someone please tell me how to correct this issue on my tower? I've followed the steps listed on this document: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7194922#7194922 and it didnt help me.
    Please help!!!!

    Not until you've searched the data base on that camera with the link I provided. You probably should search this forum and the forum at http://www.creativecow.net (the FCP forum there) on your camera and on AVCHD etc. But sure sounds like a software problem... the machine seems to be sending the signal to FCP that it is a PPC and not an intel... so I'd guess that to be a software install error of some sort. But it's a guess... That's why I suggested the reinstall to rule that out or fix you up...

  • Log and transfer progressive files

    Hi,
    When I try to log and transfer clips shot in progressive HD (AVCD) there is no image in the log and transfer screen - it is all green, although I can hear the sound of the clip, when I play it.
    It also gets transferred, but as I can't see the clip before transferring it, I can't make in and out points.
    Very frustrating!

    I believe the HMC151 is an AVCCAM and the PH mode you are shooting is not directly compatible with FCE. My understanding is that currently only FCPro can capture progressive from these cameras. There may be a workaround for FCE and perhaps Tom Wolsky will see your post here and can contribute an answer.
    In the meantime, try shooting some 1080i50 in HA or HG mode and see if you can import that successfully using the AVCHD 1080i50 Easy Setup.

  • Cannot reconnect to Canon HF11 in Log and Transfer window

    I am using a Canon HF11 HD camcorder with FCEHD and was able to view, log and transfer clips into FCE without a problem. I saved the project on FCE but when I came back the first time, it told me that several clips were missing and could not reconnect to the media. When I came back a second time, now it will not recognize the camera in the log and transfer window. Anyone else had a similar problem? Any suggestions would be great.
    Thanks

    I was having the same issue with a Canon HF S100. What seem to work for me was connecting the camera AFTER I opened the Log and Transfer window. Read my complete description on this thread, http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9573812#9573812.

  • Log and Transfer Very slow

    I am just curious if it always takes a VERY long time to log and transfer clips? I moved the files off of my SDHC cards and onto my hard drive. It's about 55GB of 1920x1080/60i footage. From a Sony HXR-NX5U/NX5N. And on average it will take a 5 minute clip about a half-hour to 45 minutes to transfer into FCP. Is this a normal thing?

    Not normally, no. But the NXCam cameras employ yet ANOTHER flavor...non-standard flavor...of AVCHD. This makes importing slow and difficult. I had good luck with clips 5 min or less, but longer...and it would take from 2-5 hours!
    The solution is to use a third party application...ClipWrap2. www.clipwrap.com
    The good thing about that solution is that ClipWrap will import the timecode from the camera...because it does have timecode that it records. But FCP...AVID...they can't find it (Sony likes to hide things apparently). But ClipWrap found it.

  • 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.
