  • why can’t i log footage?!

    This is bizarre. . .

    The problem seems to stem from a combination of at least two things

    My capture device – Panasonic GS300 – Firewire 600

    &

    My external hard drives – 1 TB Lacie Bigger Disk – USB 2.0 (I know, stupid, more on this later)
    1 TB Lacie Big Disk – Firewire 800
    300 GB Lacie Hard Drive – Firewire 600

    a week ago there were no issues
    then – I reformatted my drives to OS Extended (Journaling off). . .

    now – when I have my camera plugged in as I start up, only the 300 GB drive appears (all of my final cut projects and media are on the other external drives)

    If I unplug the camera – then the two 1 TB drives apper, final cut opens. . .but when I plug the cam back in, Final cut ceases working and the wheel appeard – until I unplug the camera again. . .

    Also, I would like to use the 1 TB Bigger disk with Firewire but for some reason, the computer (Dual 2.7 GHz G5, 2.5GB Ram, Final cut 6.0.3) will recognize the drive when plugged in, but final cut struggles to.
    any suggestions?

    Thanks,
    -Sean
