P2 Log and Transfer Idle After Partial Transfer

Hello
I am trying to transfer P2 material using Log and Transfer. There are two clips from a local production of Singing in the Rain - Act I and Act II.
Act I transfered properly and Act II was in the process of transferring when I received a message that the drive had been disconnected. In fact it was not disconnected, but the connection between the camera and computer dropped.
Now I have a partial Act II clip and can't seem to get the remainder to transfer. I open LT, drag the unfinished clip into the Queue, but LT stays in idle state.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you

Thanks for the idea. Trashing didn't work, as the project seemed to have memorized the fact that the clip had already been ingested. The same partial clip symbol was present when I remounted the card.
However, your post got me thinking about how I might be able to trash the project and start anew. Luckily, I was only fifteen minutes into the project, so I made a new project and re-transferred the card.

  • All my songs and videos gone after app transfer to my laptop (iOS 5.0)

    All my songs (about 1800 songs/12GB) and videos (10gb) have disappeared while two of my apps, Asphalt 6 and Real Racing 2 were being transferred from my iPod to my laptop. I guess they were being transferred since they have been updated and I haven't synced my ipod into my laptop for a while. But today while it was trasferring, it said that I'm running out of storage continuously and later on I saw that the transfer was done, but my songs and videos were gone! And my last backup was like when the iOS first came out, so it would mean nothing to restore from backup right now.
    I can see all of the songs and videos that were on the iPod still on iTunes, but when i click on them, it shows the exclamation mark which means that they have been disappeared or something... Any help please?

    The storage space taken up by "Other" can be made up of, notes or files of any kind you've added to the iPod whilst using it as a hard disk or album artwork. Or sometimes when the iPod data base has become corrupt.
    There will always be a few MBs of used space under "other" but if it's in GBs it's unusually large. This often happens when the iPod data base becomes corrupt.
    If the iPod is enabled for disk use, you can look at the folders on the iPod through Explorer or Finder (on a Mac) and delete anything you don't want.
    If it's a corruption of the iPod database (as seems likely here) it will probably need to be restored, see how to restore the iPod to factory settings which will erase the iPods contents and reclaim the used space.
    Then reload the music from iTunes.

  • Log and Transfer won't take P2 contents...

    I tried following Shane Ross' P2 workflow video exactly, but when I attempt to open the folder containing the "Contents" folder and the text file, the media doesn't show up in the Log and Transfer browser. Nothing happens at all; I click open and the browsing window disappears and the Log and Transfer window is left as it was when I first opened it.
    I had initially thought that the problem was that the drive I was trying to look at was NTSF formatted. I normally wouldn't check the formatting of a drive because most of the people I work with are Mac people, but I ended up copying everything to an OS Extended drive and the workflow still won't work.
    I'm new to P2 material, the director doesn't know anything about and she hasn't been able to get in touch with her friend, from whom she borrowed the camera.
    Do I need to download some third party software to make this work?
    By the way, I'm using FCP 6.0.3 on a MacBook Pro (2.66 GHz, 2 GB RAM) with the media on a G-RAID drive through FW800. The footage was shot on an HVX-500.

    Shane, thanks for the follow up.
    Yes, that did turn out to be the problem. I saw the thread on DVXUsers. Of course they attributed the discovery of the problem to you.
    By the way, the tutorial you did, after I fixed the FX Factory problem, was great. I'm really enjoying this method of logging and "capturing". After trying this out, I want to smack everyone that's ever made me capture HDV.
    You're the man, Shane!

  • Crashing after Log and Transfer

    I am experiencing a FCP crash after using Log and Transfer to import P2 files.  The material is on an external FW800 drive.  I go to Add Custom Path in the Log and Transfer dialog box, point the software to the CONTENTS folder of each captured P2 card, the list populates with the clips, I drag the files into the que, and they import as usual.  All is well and good until I X out of Log and Transfer, and when I do that, FCP crashes.  I have not experienced this when capturing directly from a camera. This has happened over and over since beginning this project, and we are still yet to get all the material into the machine for editing. 
    Also, in case it is pertinent, I am using a MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz Core i7 machine with 8GB RAM.
    Any ideas or has anyone else experienced this?  Thanks in advance!

    First thing I'd try is trashing your preferences.  Google preference manager from digital rebellion.  It's a free download and in invaluable.  It's so cool you'll WANT to pay for it.  It allows you to store a good set of preferences, trash them when they get funky and then restore the good set, including all the cool stuff you created.
    ANYWAY,  I'm in the habit of saving every which way from Tuesday after something interesting has happened, like a capture or L&T.  I know that's not a solution, but a best practice.  hopefully a pref trash will set you right.

  • ARTIFACTS AFTER LOG AND TRANSFER! please help!

    i was given a p2 card to log and transfer. after my first attempt to log and transfer, the sound was way out of sync and the video was strobing. then i deselected the option to remove advanced pulldown and drop frames from the settings preferences. i then log and transfered again and this seemed to fix the initial problems. however, now my clips have artifacts every few seconds that look like little patches of random colors. what are these and how can i fix them. any help is greatly appreciated. thanx.

    In the L&T window...play the footage. Can you see them there? If you don't have P2CMS from Panasonic, download it and use it to view the footage. See if this break up is on the original footage.
    I have seen this, but it appeared on the master footage.

  • Log and transfer keeps going on idle... and won't load my clips

    Final Cut Express has my video footage on there. But when I try to log and transfer it, it will have the spinny arrow thing that makes it look like it's loading clips but then it will stop and go on idle.
    I have no idea what to do. I just put Final Cut Express on my computer the other day and this is the first time I am using it on this computer.
    I already trashed my preferences, thinking that was the problem but I am totally at a loss. Please help. Thank you!!

    There is lots of existing info on this forum about capturing AVCHD from Canon cams. Try a search.
    Usually the trouble is in the Log and Transfer window settings.
    Switch to Plain Stereo rather than the default Matrix setting.

  • Log and Transfer with Canon XF300's after 1.0.2 Firmware upgrade

    Lion and FCE are not supported working together.
    I'd suggest getting your mate to step your Mac back to Snow Leopard or Leopard with a clean install rather than a migration.
    Then install FCE from the Disc.
    Or move to FCPro X that is Lion supported.
    FCPro X is nothing like FCE, so you have to re-learn.

  • Final Cut Pro- Log and Transfer goes idle

    I just shot a project on P2 cards on the Panasonic HVX200 and now when I'm trying to download my files into Final Cut 6.0 via Log and Transfer it goes idle. I can play the clip in the viewer, but it won't download, the wheel turns for a second and an orange exclamation mark pops up. I've tried trashing the preferences and have double checked the Audio/Video set-up countless times. Does anybody have any advice?

    And your scratch disk? Formatted MacOSextended?
    Have you turned off "put hard disks to sleep when possible" in your energy saver preferences.

  • This has NEVER happened to me before: Idle during Log and Transfer

    All of a sudden, when I try to log and transfer HD video from my Sony HDR-CX550 my clips just idle in the queue - they start to spin but then idle. I have dropped clips in the queue 100 times, 200, without this ever happening. The only thing I did a bit different was delete some footage from the camera itself last night - but that's NOTHING. I tried queueing up different clips from different days, IDLE.
    I tried queueing up to different drives - IDLE
    Wussup??

    Open finder to the top level, there you will see your applications folder.  Drag this folder to the finder sidebar.

  • LOG AND TRANSFER not working after upgrade ...?

    Hi ..
    I am running FCP 6.0.5
    I am using Mac OSX 10.5.6
    I've been using the 'log and transfer' window of FCP for the past few months without any trouble ... until today.
    Every time i transfer the clips everything appears to go smoothly, but then when the 'transferred' clip is played back there is an odd 'jumping' or 'glitching' ... IE: the resulting footage is definitely NOT usable.
    The only thing that i can think of that's changed is the fact that I upgraded the software last thursday and i probably hadn't transferred any footage since then. Is there an FCP conflict with the latest quicktime or Itunes upgrades?
    I have tried re-transferring some clips from last week before the upgrade and the transfers now have the glitches.
    I need this working as soon as possible! I have deadlines! Anyone who can help it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Log and Transfer not working after reformatting computers

    I have taught with FCP for years.  This year, tech services reformatted my computers.  Since they were formatted, Log and Transfer does not work with my Sony Handycam.  A couple computers that have not been reformatted still Log and Transfer with no problems.  The only difference I can find is that the newly formatted computers are running OSX 10.6.8.  The computers that still Log and Transfer with no problems are running OSX 10.5.8. 
    I don't know if that is the problem, but would appreciate some direction here.

  • Audio Drops on QT Files After P2 Log and Transfer

    I'm using Log and Transfer to convert my P2 data into editable QuickTimes; however, for some reason, my rendered QuickTime files loose their audio at some point. I say, "Some point," because it's not at a specific timecode. It's different for each clip. Some maintain the audio for 80% of the clip while others might be 30%. I know the audio is there because I can hear throughout the entire length of each clip in the Log and Transfer window. Any idea what's happening during the render to QuickTime process?

    Possible quick fix -won't hurt to try it.
    Deleting FCP Preferences:
    Open a Finder window. Set the view mode to columns:
    Click the house icon that has your name next to it.
    Click the folder "Library" in the next column.
    Find and click the folder "Preferences" in the next column.
    Find and click the folder "Final Cut Pro User Data" in the next column.
    Move the files "Final Cut Pro 6.0 Prefs", "Final Cut Pro Obj Cache" and "Final Cut Pro Prof Cache" to the Trash and empty it.
    When you have a stable set of preference files, download [Preference Manager|http://www.digitalrebellion.com/pref_man.htm] to back them up. If you have further problems, the backup can be recalled and you can continue working.
