Re: capture errors, fcp 6.0.3

FCP is known to be unable to handle long takes of HDV material. With the JVC HD100, for example, you cannot ingest a full tape of *uninterrupted* footage. You simply can't, FCP will break it at arbitrary spots and create a new clip.
I personally got fed up with that as I was synching 3 cameras for interviews, a similar scenario, and switched to Premiere with does the job just fine, same tapes and camera, no breaks. If you want to use FCP you can work around the problem by using DVHSCap, an Apple program part of the FireWire SDK, capture your footage as .m2t files, then convert them to QT by using MPEG Streanclip, another free program. Bring the footage in FCP now and you'll be able to use Multiclips. If you shot your footage in 24p you will need to specify the frame rate in MPSC as 23.976.

Good luck
