Log and Transfer - panasonic HDC-SD5 - quits on startup - AVCHD

Hi Guys,
When an SDHC (4Gb) card or HDC-SD5 (via USB) is connected, and I bring up the Log and Transfer window, Final Cut Pro quits without a message. I have been struggling with the same issue with iMovie '08. Please see this thread for details:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5526463&#5526463
Configuration: FCP 6.0.1, Pro Update, QT 7.1.6. OSX 10.4.9. MacPro.
I no longer know what to do with this issue. I've tried using Disk Utility to make an image and then mount it...same result. The SD reader is not the issue as the result is the same even if I connect the camcorder via USB. I noticed that I if I don't apply the Pro Apps Update and keep FCP at 6.0, it doesn't crash but fails to recognize the Panasonic's AVCHD structure on the SD card.
What I did notice, however, was the manual mentioned that SD cards, whether it be 4Gb or 8Gb are formatted with FAT32 and everything below 4Gb is formated with FAT16. Perhaps this can be the root cause? Is there anybody suing a SDHC 4Gb card , formatted with the Panasonic AVCHD structure having success with FCP 6.0.1 (and or iMovie '08)???
I also read that QuickTime 7.2 can be the issue, reformatted and installed 7.1.6, again, same result.
Please any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Max Average, thanks for your reply but you suggestion does not work. I copied the contents of the SD card to a directory on my main volume, opened FCP, went to Log and Transfer, clicked the Add Folder button and then navigated to aforementioned directory -- and still FCP quits!
The directory structure as it appears on my panasonic formatted drive is:
DCIM
MISC
PRIVATE
|_AVCHD
|_AVCHDTN
|_BDMV
|_CLIPINF
|_00000.CPI
|_INDEX.BDM
|_MOVIEOBJ.BDM
|_PLAYLIST
|_00000.MPL
|_STREAM
|_00000.MTS
Is this a standard across all AVCHD manufacturers?

  • Log and transfer crashes when converting to 422 from avchd from sony fs700

    trying to import AVChd files shot on a Sony FS700.
    the files are on average one hour or more.
    Need to import as 422 HQ
    log and transfer sees the files but FCP 7 crashes every time
    I've tried using PavTube to convert but files over 10 minutes are segmented in chunks ranging from 10 minutes to 11 minutes when the source file is long. Also the media slips out of sync over time.
    I have had success with short files in FCP 7 via log and transfer but anything long results in the crash.
    is this just a limitation? IS there a fix for this?
    thanks

    seems like some formats that the camera shoots are not compatible.  Not sure if this applies to your footage, but you might want to try clipwrap to do the conversion.
    http://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap
    It's not very expensive and there's a free trial to test the workflow.
    Don't think there are any updates for fcp that will help this, but you might try doing a software update and see if there's anything that looks likely.

    Working with AVCHD: Log and Transfer FAQs
    Log and Transfer was introduced to the product chain in Final Cut Express 4, and is the program's process for ingesting files in the AVCHD format utilizing MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video coding and either Dolby AC-3 or uncompressed linear PCM audio coding. The most frequently observed problems relating to the Log and Transfer process are generally quite easily addressed.
    What should I know before attempting to ingest my footage?
    The following facts regarding the Log and Transfer process were adapted from the [Apple Knowledge Base article|http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24840?viewlocale=en_US] on transferring AVCHD in Final Cut Pro 6.0.1 but still hold true for the current version of FCE:
    AVCHD support is available only on Intel-based Macintosh computers.
    AVCHD camcorders typically connect to computers via USB 2.0, not FireWire.
    DVD-based AVCHD camcorders are not supported in Mac OS X 10.4 or earlier.
    Standard definition video recorded with AVCHD camcorders cannot be accessed in the Log and Transfer window. SD and HD clips should not be mixed on the same HDD.
    Preview of AVCHD video in the Log and Transfer window is limited to 1x forward playback. Scrubbing the playhead does not update the video in the Preview area until you stop scrubbing.
    When you choose to transfer AVCHD audio in the Logging area, audio is automatically mixed down to stereo.
    AVCHD footage is not ingested natively but is transcoded to the Apple Intermediate Codec.
    Apple Intermediate Codec files are significantly larger than the original AVCHD files. FCE does not estimate the size of a transcoded AVCHD file before ingesting, so it is possible to exceed the available space on your capture disk during transfer. Before ingesting, keep in mind that the disk space required is about ten times greater than the size of the native AVCHD file.
    Which specific formats can be ingested by Log and Transfer?
    Only AVCHD footage can be ingested through the Log and Transfer process. Other formats and variants such as AVCHD Lite are not supported. All video should be recorded in a frame size of either 1440x1080 or 1920x1080 and a frame rate of 25 or 29.97 frames per second. Audio recorded on AVCHD camcorders is generally at a rate of 48kHz. If your camera shoots in a format that does not comply with one of these setups then it is most likely not supported by the application and is not guaranteed to work correctly.
    Which Easy Setup preset should I select before ingesting my footage?
    It is extremely important to select the preset that matches your media before you attempt to ingest via Log and Transfer. There is only one Easy Setup preset that matches the frame size and rate of your footage. If you intend to ingest AVCHD clips through Log and Transfer you will first need to select one of the following presets:
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i50
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i60
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i50
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60
    If these four options do not appear under your Easy Setup list then you probably need to run Software Update and update to FCE 4.0.1. DO NOT cycle through the available presets until you find one that works - there is only one preset that matches your media and it should be evident which one to choose by the way it is named. Select the AVCHD preset that mentions your frame size and frame rate (i50 presets support both 50i and 25p frame rates; similarly, i60 presets support both 60i and 29.97p frame rates). If you do cycle through many options in the hope of selecting the correct one through guess-and-check you will probably have corrupted your preference file and need to [trash your preferences|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2611] before continuing.
    Why don't my clips appear when I open the Log and Transfer window?
    Make sure your camcorder records AVCHD in a format supported by FCE4. It should be connected to one of your computer's USB ports (never connect it to an external hard drive or other external device such as your keyboard or a USB hub), powered on, and set to video playback mode.
    If the camcorder +does not+ mount on your Desktop your USB port or cable may be malfunctioning. Try plugging it in to another port or using a different USB cable to see if it makes a difference.
    If the camcorder does mount on your Desktop but the clips do not appear in the Log and Transfer window you will need to point the program to the directory that contains your media.
    First, click the Add Folder button in the upper left of the Log and Transfer window. The button looks like this:
    Then, you will need to navigate to the root directory in which your media is stored. Most camcorders call this folder "PRIVATE" or "AVCHD" and it should be located at the very top level of the camcorder when mounted. If your camcorder records to a valid AVCHD directory structure then your clips should load after the Add Folder process is completed.
    I would like to keep a working backup of my original clips so that I can delete them off the camcorder's internal memory. How should I do this?
    There are two main ways to keep a backup of your clips. The first is to ingest every clip on your camcorder through the Log and Transfer process, and store the Apple Intermediate Codec files the application creates in an easily accessible place such as an external FireWire drive. The advantage of this method is that you have the ability to open back up old editing projects, reconnect the media as necessary, and keep going as if you'd never left. However, due to the large amount of space AIC takes up (usually somewhere in the vicinity of 41-50GB an hour when transcoded from AVCHD), this is not always feasible.
    Another often preferable approach is to copy over the root directory in which your clips are stored (usually named "PRIVATE" or "AVCHD") from the camcorder to your computer or an external drive. As long as you maintain the original file structure, you will be able to ingest your clips again at a later date using the "Add Folder" process detailed above to navigate to their new location.
    My clips appear, but when I attempt to ingest a red exclamation point appears and the window displays the message "Error: No Data"
    This is one of the most common problems that users experience when trying to ingest their media through the Log and Transfer process. Luckily, it also has one of the easiest solutions.
    In the Log and Transfer window, click on the gear icon in the top right and select "Preferences" in the contextual menu that appears.
    Make sure the video is set to transcode to the Apple Intermediate Codec and the audio is set to Plain Stereo.
    After doing so, hit OK and try to ingest again.
    I am experiencing a problem that is not covered in this tip or the solutions here do not work.

    Working with AVCHD: Log and Transfer FAQs
    Log and Transfer was introduced to the product chain in Final Cut Express 4, and is the program's process for ingesting files in the AVCHD format utilizing MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video coding and either Dolby AC-3 or uncompressed linear PCM audio coding. The most frequently observed problems relating to the Log and Transfer process are generally quite easily addressed.
    What should I know before attempting to ingest my footage?
    The following facts regarding the Log and Transfer process were adapted from the [Apple Knowledge Base article|http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24840?viewlocale=en_US] on transferring AVCHD in Final Cut Pro 6.0.1 but still hold true for the current version of FCE:
    AVCHD support is available only on Intel-based Macintosh computers.
    AVCHD camcorders typically connect to computers via USB 2.0, not FireWire.
    DVD-based AVCHD camcorders are not supported in Mac OS X 10.4 or earlier.
    Standard definition video recorded with AVCHD camcorders cannot be accessed in the Log and Transfer window. SD and HD clips should not be mixed on the same HDD.
    Preview of AVCHD video in the Log and Transfer window is limited to 1x forward playback. Scrubbing the playhead does not update the video in the Preview area until you stop scrubbing.
    When you choose to transfer AVCHD audio in the Logging area, audio is automatically mixed down to stereo.
    AVCHD footage is not ingested natively but is transcoded to the Apple Intermediate Codec.
    Apple Intermediate Codec files are significantly larger than the original AVCHD files. FCE does not estimate the size of a transcoded AVCHD file before ingesting, so it is possible to exceed the available space on your capture disk during transfer. Before ingesting, keep in mind that the disk space required is about ten times greater than the size of the native AVCHD file.
    Which specific formats can be ingested by Log and Transfer?
    Only AVCHD footage can be ingested through the Log and Transfer process. Other formats and variants such as AVCHD Lite are not supported. All video should be recorded in a frame size of either 1440x1080 or 1920x1080 and a frame rate of 25 or 29.97 frames per second. Audio recorded on AVCHD camcorders is generally at a rate of 48kHz. If your camera shoots in a format that does not comply with one of these setups then it is most likely not supported by the application and is not guaranteed to work correctly.
    Which Easy Setup preset should I select before ingesting my footage?
    It is extremely important to select the preset that matches your media before you attempt to ingest via Log and Transfer. There is only one Easy Setup preset that matches the frame size and rate of your footage. If you intend to ingest AVCHD clips through Log and Transfer you will first need to select one of the following presets:
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i50
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i60
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i50
    AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60
    If these four options do not appear under your Easy Setup list then you probably need to run Software Update and update to FCE 4.0.1. DO NOT cycle through the available presets until you find one that works - there is only one preset that matches your media and it should be evident which one to choose by the way it is named. Select the AVCHD preset that mentions your frame size and frame rate (i50 presets support both 50i and 25p frame rates; similarly, i60 presets support both 60i and 29.97p frame rates). If you do cycle through many options in the hope of selecting the correct one through guess-and-check you will probably have corrupted your preference file and need to [trash your preferences|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2611] before continuing.
    Why don't my clips appear when I open the Log and Transfer window?
    Make sure your camcorder records AVCHD in a format supported by FCE4. It should be connected to one of your computer's USB ports (never connect it to an external hard drive or other external device such as your keyboard or a USB hub), powered on, and set to video playback mode.
    If the camcorder +does not+ mount on your Desktop your USB port or cable may be malfunctioning. Try plugging it in to another port or using a different USB cable to see if it makes a difference.
    If the camcorder does mount on your Desktop but the clips do not appear in the Log and Transfer window you will need to point the program to the directory that contains your media.
    First, click the Add Folder button in the upper left of the Log and Transfer window. The button looks like this:
    Then, you will need to navigate to the root directory in which your media is stored. Most camcorders call this folder "PRIVATE" or "AVCHD" and it should be located at the very top level of the camcorder when mounted. If your camcorder records to a valid AVCHD directory structure then your clips should load after the Add Folder process is completed.

  • 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.

  • AVCHD Crashes FCP on Log and Transfer *SURPRISE*

    OK after days of scouring the net I've not been able to come up with a solution...
    I'm running FCP v7 on a quad core Intel mac with 8Gb's RAM
    Whenever I open the Log and Transfer window to attempt to import my AVCHD footage I get the beach-ball of death and a crash.
    iMovie crashes as well if I attempt an import.
    The files are .mts from the new Sony Pov cam
    And yes, I've disabled Perian
    Failing a solution I'm about to ditch Final Cut and go with Premier Pro which now seems to be streets ahead of FCP!
    Any help would be much appreciated

    Sounds like Premiere is indeed the best option, if it's working for you now, and there's a deadline ahead.
    Best of luck with it.

  • Log and transfer with Panasonic HDC-HS100

    I recently purchased the Panasonic HDC-HS 100, that is a hybrid SD card/HDD. I am having problems importing my footage onto my computer. When opening the log and transfer window in FCP, it does not recognize the camera (error messages indicate there is an invalid directory structure). Also, the media has been saved to my computers hard drive. How do I get this footage on my computer so I can start editing! Thanks for the help.

    Hi David - I'm actually having the exact same problem:
    Have the HDC-HS100, trying to import the internal files into Final Cut Express 4 using the "Log & Transfer" program. I've tried several times to "Add Clip to Queue" but it continuously says "1 clip queued - idle."
    And help would be much appreciated. Just got back from a 2-month trip to Central America with some great footage that I can't even touch!

  • Panasonic HDC-SX5 Log and Transfer ratio problems

    Hi, I'm having a little trouble with some footage from a camera that I've never worked with (Panasonic HDC-SX5). When you log and transfer footage from the camera via usb the footage is ingested at 2560x1080 when it should be 1920x1080. 1440x1080 is a possibility too, definitely not 2560 though. When the footage is transfered it's transcoded to Apple's Pro Res but FCP gives me no option to change those import settings? You only get to choose between Pro Res and AIC.
    I can manually change all the clip properties but surely this isn't how FCP intended people with this camera to work. There are a ton of clips.
    Has anyone else ran in to this? Thanks.

  • Panasonic HDC SD5 - Can't transfer ADCHD clips to FCE

    A relative has owned a HDC SD5 Panasonic HD Camera for a couple of years, and today bought FCE4 installing on his iMac. Using log and transfer, he selects the clips he wants to transfer, but once finished they do not go into the project folder on the left hand side. He has also tried to drag them to the project folder but gets a red exclamation mark.
    I thought it might be a problem with the card, so he formatted a blank card, did a few minutes filming and tried to transfer this, but again the same problem. The camera has .mts files on the SD, can these be imported to FCE?
    Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated how to get his footage from recent holidays.
    Thanks
    Matt

    so far only Pinnacle Studio 14 can recognize MTS files and HDTV movies
    and of course connect to any camera
    also for rendering and burning your movies Pinnacle Studio 14 works great
    I have tried FCE4 iMovie nothing works at all
    and got really frustrated as soo many easy task just can't be done with a Mac
    Panasonic has many patches for Mac and PC
    on it's web site only the PC stuff works
    but is not needed with Pinnacle Studio 14

  • Log and Transfer with Panasonic HD

    Recently I purchased the Panasonic HDC-HS 100, which is a hybrid SD card/HDD, (AVCHD). I use the Mac OS X (10.4.11) with Final Cut Pro 6.0.5. I am having problems importing my footage onto my computer. When opening the log and transfer window in FCP, it does not recognize the camera (error messages indicate there is an invalid directory structure). Also, the media has been saved to my computers hard drive. How do I get this footage on my computer so I can start editing! Thanks for the help.

    Do you have an external card reader? Or are you playing back from the camera? When you copied the contents of the card to the computer, did you copy the whole card, or just the video clips? You have to copy the ENTIRE card, as is. Create a folder on your external hard drive and name it P2(name of project)#. So if you have 3 cards you used for the project "My Haircut" you would have 3 folders named
    P2myHaircut-1
    P2myHaircut-2
    P2myHaircut-3
    That is just a sample naming scheme. You can use what you want, just be consistent so you can find your footage easily. Then, mount your SD card on the desktop, open it, select all, and drag to the appropriate folder. Make sure you select all. Then, open Log and Transfer, go to the upper right corner of the Log and Transfer browser and click on the drop down button. You will see a choice that says Create Custom Path. Click that, then locate the Folder you just created. Click once on that folder and then "choose". DON'T choose the internal folders, just choose your P2myHaircut# folder. You should see your clips pop up in that browser. If this doesn't work, you may be missing a component for that camera. Honestly, I don't know anything about your camera, but that is the process for Log and Transfer.

  • IMovie 08 and Panasonic HDC-SD5 Camera

    Hi Folks I have a Mac (lol), i have a Panasonic High Definition Camera and i have a problem. I connect the camera, i import the clip on my macintosh hd and i create my dvd with iDVD. But when I see my dvd i see that the video is ginned, with a very low quality. Why???
    Info: Mac OS X 10.5.6 on MacBook 3.1 with 2.2 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, 2 Gb of RAM and Intel GMA X3100 graphic card.
    Panasonic HDC-SD5 with 3CCD and high resolution (Full HD 1920x1080). It recorded with the AVCHD format.
    Thank you!!

    If you have a PC and the generic software that comes with the camera you can as well.
    If iMovie 08 can import high definition video can it not output it on its own as AVCHD (AVC/H.264 - MPEG4) to DVD?

  • Log and transfer footage from Panasonic GH1 into FCE

    I have already read the few threads discussing importing AVCHD video from the Panasonic GH1 camera into FCE. I was expecting that the 1080x24 (wrapped in 60i) would import OK but the 720x60p would not. However, so far, I have had both formats import using the log and transfer just fine. These have been only short clips roughly a minute or less in length but no sign of FCE crashing when importing the 60p footage.
    So, is this considered normal or has something in the most recent OSX updates fixed this FCE capability?

    The program is usually able to ingest 24p and 60p footage fine, but upon exporting it will be conformed to the frame rate of your sequence. Since FCE doesn't support custom sequences all exported movies are either in 29.97fps or 25fps. Problems also sometimes arise where the program interprets your footage as 29.97fps instead of what it actually is, causing the audio to drift a bit as well.
    Better to stick to what the program supports: 50i/25p and 60i/30p. If you need the functionality of 24p or 60p you should upgrade to Final Cut Pro.

  • FYI: iMovie and Panasonic HDC-SD5

    FYI,
    I just purchased the Panasonic HDC-SD5 which supports 1920x1080 or 1080P. I recorded clip with the HG1920 setting (1080P). I then imported the clip into iMovie and added it to a project. When I play the movie everything is oblong. (A circle appears as a oval.) I then recored a clip at 1080i, imported it and everything looks correct.
    It appears that iMovie does not currently support 1080P using a AVCHD camcorder.
    Does anyone know if Final Cut Express supports 1080P?

    You may find some of the information in my other thread useful... http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1131966&tstart=0
    I believe the SD5 is 1080i and not 1080p. If you look at the imported file you will most likely notice it is not 1920x1080. It is now 2560x1080. If your record in one of the 1440 modes on the camera you will see the 1440x1080 is imported as 1920x1080 and therefore everything does not look stretched. I have not been able to determine if it is a bug of Apple or Panasonic.
    I assume you will see the same thing with FCE since I do see the same behavior with Final Cut Pro.
    You are correct that currently the 1080i SD5 is not supported. I would assume that it will be added to the support list soon. At least that is my hope.
    For now I have been playing with the 1920x1080 mode and editing with the stretched imports. Then I just share using Quicktime and change the size to 1920x1080. It seems to be working well. The picture quality is still very nice.
    Hope that info helps.

  • Can't log and transfer with panasonic ag-hvx200p

    I just bought a new macbook pro and installed Final Cut Studio 2 (I also have it installed on my Mac Pro, for about 18 months now). When I connect my Panasonic AG-HVX200P it is recognized on my desktop. However, when I start up FCP (version 6.0.1) I'm told it cannot locate an external device... but, it does recognize the camera when I go to the "log and transfer" function. It even loads all the clips and allows me to play them before I add anything to the queue. But when I actually select clips to be added to the queue the status wheel spins for a few seconds and then stops... and that's it, just stops.
    The weird thing is my Mac Pro DOES allow me to successfully add video clips to the queue. The only thing I can think of right now is, maybe, I have a bad firewire cable for the MacBook Pro. It uses a 4-pin to 9-pin, and the Mac Pro uses the other sized connection (sorry, I don't know it).
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Hello Eric,
    2 things that come to my mind :
    I guess you have pressed the Camera button (next to the MCR/VCR) long enough to initialize the "drive".
    You should absolutely transfere all files before doing any log and capture to a hard drive. Don't use the "Finder" but a transfer software from Panasonci or anyone else. Don't do it directly from the cam.
    Hope that helps,
    /Max

  • 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.

  • Why does Final Cut Express 4 quit automatically when I open Log and Transfer window?

         I'm using a Sony NXCAM and I am editing on a Mac OS X. The clips I have recorded are in MTS format so I understand I must use the Log and Transfer setting to import my clips. I plug the camera into my computer, go into Final Cut Express 4, turn the camera on, and then go into the Log and Transfer window. Once I open that, Final Cut quits and an error message pops up that reads, "Final Cut Express quit unexpectedly." Final Cut quits too fast for me to even click on anything in the Log and Transfer window. I really don't understand why it does this. The only thing I can think of why Final Cut is quitting is because I have over 100 clips on the camera, so maybe that is too much for Final Cut Express 4 to handle. However, I wouldn't think that would be the case. If anyone knows of anything I could do to fix this problem, then please send me a reply. I've looked around the internet to see if anyone else has had this problem, but I haven't found anything. Thank you, any responses will be greatly appreciated!

    Shooted videos directly saved to the SD memory card is no problem, the log and transfer window immediately recognizes the sd card and I was able to convert the videos. I will check later today if this were 25p, 50i or 50p footages.
    Strangely enough is that transferring the .mts files from the internal memory to the sd card (using the Mac finder, I don't know if it is possible within the camera itself) won’t help, the log and transfer window doesn't the recognizes the transferred files, strange!
    I hope that this problem will not occur using Final Cut Pro X, which I will start using soon.
    I'm curious what the exact problem will be.
