Create lossless Quicktimes? Do you mean import from the cards? You need to use Log and Transfer for that. I have a tutorial on what to do. And when you import, it will ONLY import them as DVCPRO HD 720p 24PN…if that is what you shot. Whatever settings you shot, FCP will import as…no quality loss.

No I have tranferred the files into FCP, the client wants RAW QT’s in addition to the P2 card content, I cannot find a lossless codec for the QT’s

When you shoot with that camera…to P2 cards…it records the footage as MXF files, in several folders. This is the RAW P2 data…the RAW P2 content that your client wants.
Now…when you import that into Final Cut Pro, all you do is marry audio and video, and put that information inside a Quicktime wrapper. THAT is your RAW Quicktime footage. If you shot DVCPRO HD, then the Quicktimes will be in the DVCPRO HD codec. That is a lossless transfer. Unfortunately they are only viewable on computers with FCP installed, or the P2CMS Viewer from Panasonic.
But that’s it…you have all that they are asking for. The original P2 content, and the RAW Quicktime files. They are located in the Capture Scratch folder, inside the project folder.
