Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy problems with capture

  • problems with capture

    Posted by Pol on April 12, 2005 at 9:12 pm

    When I try to capture video from DV (with firewire) the system freezes. I have video in the log & capture window but when I hit capture the system shows the first frame and freezes.
    Before the system captures I get a black square with the apple logo (wich is normal, I know) and the message ‘allocating disk memory’. What does that mean?
    I run FCP HD on a powerbook, 36GB of free disk space.

    Thanks

    Don’t use capture NOW.

    Try logging an IN-point and OUT-Point, enter a Clip Name and Log the clip(s) first.
    Then capture with “Clip” or “Batch”.

    See if that works better.
