Ricky BarrowDVCPRO HD .mov from FCP to ANYTHING
by on Jul 31, 2012 at 3:08:13 pm

Photographer shot Panasonic tapes, DVCPRO HD 720p 59.94. Captured/digitized through FCP (I'm not sure what version) to make QT .mov files. He said he kept DVCPRO HD codec all through the process. I know nothing about FCP. When he sent the drive, there were 4 folders: 1) Shoot ONE with 3 tapes = 3 29GB .mov files, 2) Shoot TWO with 6 tapes = 6 29GB .mov files Folders 3 and 4 seemed to be related to the FCP process i.e. audio renders etc.

I copied the 2 folders with .mov files to our media server. On Avid MC 6 Win7 machine with Calibrated-Q bundle installed, both QT(player) and Avid(AMA Linking) could only read 2 of the 9 files (one in each folder.

I then took the original drive with 4 folders, plugged into MAC laptop with FCP installed and could watch all files in QT player, so I started Sorenson Squeeze to convert all to DNxHD codec for use with Avid. In the process of taking this conversion home to run overnight, I dropped the hard drive and it is dead. I bring the same MAC laptop back and try to read the .mov files (without the extra 2 folders that I believe are related to FCP) and now QT player on this MAC laptop will only read the same 2 files of 9 .... Do I need these extra folders? Were they created by FCP and contain some data that allows me to read the mov files? I have tried every conceivable idea between 2 PC's and 2 MACs with FCP 7 installed, updated QT, loaded plugins etc. I am ready to pull out what little hair I have left. Even iMovie will only import the same 2 of 9 files!

Please help.

Ricky
