Capturing not saving clips
hi, im having a problem when trying to captured logged clips. batch capture or just one at a time, when it is done capturing, i get the window that says clips done, but when i exit the clips still remain offline and there are no files in the capture scratch. if it makes any difference, while its capturing the clip, it shows up in the capture scratch folder. but not after. thanks for all the help, i really need to get this figured out asap.

Move your out point one second earlier. You might be hitting code that isn’t on the tape, and when that happens, the capture aborts…but says it went fine.

i dont think its a problem with not having enough timecode, and it doesnt abort at all, it finishes and i click ok. btw i have a blackmagic extreme decklink

Use SPOTLIGHT to search for the clip. Just in case it went somewhere else.

nope, not anywhere else, i checked the scratch disk too and it was set right. also tried reconnecting the clip and searching for it, but nothing. its really strange, ive never seen a problem like it, only problems during capture resulting in abortion

Try trashing the FCP prefs

Well…. I understand your pain. I have a project that I am currently working on that has really really bad timecode on the tape.
My client handed me a bunch of tapes from a dinner banquet that was supposed to be shot by a professional production company and they realtime synced their tapes. Well, let me tell you…. timecodes are all over the spectum. Its a real mess. FCP has a reall problem with this and I would have retimecoded the tapes but they are an hour a half long each on BetaSP.
Ho Hum…… I’m just going to fumble thru this mess and pray that it turns out great. You know…. Make chicken salad out of chicken sh*t!
