  • Is the occasional log and transfer problem normal?

    Posted by Noam Osband on June 3, 2011 at 7:42 pm

    Rarely, I try to transfer some clips and FCP will start and then stop. When I go to look at the log and transfer screen, they have a red x next to them. I usually have to try 1 or 2 more times and then, eventually, the clips are transferred. Typically, it is a few clips on a card where most of them went off without a hitch.

    Is this normal? A sign of potential problems with the SD card? With FCP? It happens very rarely.

    This has happened to me before. I’ve found that when you are doing log and transfer, you shouldn’t be doing much of anything else on your computer. I think it may be a bug in log in transfer.

    I had problems in the past with long clips when using an external USB drive while also connected with my camera via USB. Went away with SATA drives.
