First time spanning cards

	First time spanning cards by Scott Evans on Jun 29, 2009 at 11:50:46 pm I just shot my first footage in HD with my 170, while recording the lightning footage the camera switched from card 1 to card 2. Now...when I ingest card 1 with my laptop and using P2 Viewer I do what I have normally done. I then ingest card 2 and all is fine. However when I try to view the footage there is one clip marked with a magenta exclamation mark and I dont believe all the clip is there. What did I do wrong? What am I missing regarding ingesting two cards with spanned clips? Thank you. Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: First time spanning cards by Scott Evans on Jul 7, 2009 at 3:35:49 pm Ummm...well thanks Jeremy...however I am using P2 Viewer, a Vista laptop and ultimately edited with PremierProCS4. Therefore, that wont help me. Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: First time spanning cards by Jeremy Garchow on Jul 7, 2009 at 4:17:01 pm OK, thanks for the clarification. Do you have both cards loaded in P2 Viewer? Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: First time spanning cards by Jeremy Garchow on Jul 7, 2009 at 4:26:50 pm So move the p2 cards to another drive. The probelm here is that the warning is telling you you are missing the second half of the spanned clip. Jeremy Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

You could use MXF4mac to edit the MXF files natively, no log and transfer. Don't ever trash your MXF files. You can watch a primer here: http://library.creativecow.net/articles/garchow_jeremy/dvc_pro_hd.php Otherwise, you need to log and transfer from your backup drive to your RAID. Shane goes over that process here: http://library.creativecow.net/articles/ross_shane/p2fcp6.php Jeremy Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index
