AVC Log & Transfer issues
Posted by Greg Nosaty on July 3, 2008 at 3:55 pmI can’t Log and Transfer Panasonic AVC codec in FCP6 on my Intel octacore. I’m talking AVC not AVCIntra. When in L&T and I navigate to the folder containing the files I get a window that says it can’t recognize the format. If I use one of my older logging stations I don’t have any trouble.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a fix to down load?
cheers,

Yes, many times but my Intel Quad and Octacore still do not want to play nice. My dual G5 suite and iBook still seem to work though.

July 4, 2008 at 7:20 pmI have discovered that FCP log & transfer will not recognize the AVCHD media from the SD card in a card reader. When I copy the file structure to a folder on a hard drive viola!

All the best,

July 4, 2008 at 7:49 pmFor me and our MBPro, a card reader worked, but barely- so slow it choked the system when the Log and Transfer window was open. Forget trying to scroll down to the 57th shot, there’s the beachball and maybe a crash.
I treat AVCHD card data like P2 data, meaning I copy to an external hard drive first then use FCP to take it from there. After I know the footage is in the project and its raw file backed up, then we reformat the card in the camera before the next shoot.

August 21, 2008 at 7:13 pmI also have the problem of Log and Transfer not recognizing the AVCHD card reader, but even after transferring the files to the hard drive, I still cannot import the files into FCP.
Does anyone think I am missing a step when I am trying to import the files from the File Structure on the hard drive? Thanks!

August 21, 2008 at 9:42 pmThe fix I found was to move my Log and Transfer window from my right monitor (or control monitor) to the left one. It is consistent, when I move it back I get the “file structure” warning and it will not work. Move it back and everything is fine.
give it a shot, as silly as this may sound!

Not AVCHD is depolyed equally. What camera are you shooting from?
