convert P2 to XDCam for storage?

[Bjoern Adamski]

XDCAM Transfer only works with Sony XDCAM footage, not with P2.

Try updating to the latest FCP 6.0.5.

Thanks for responding.

Good news is that I finally figured out the “log and transfer” problem in FCP! It’s very simple as it turns out. The name for the takes should not be more than 26 characters! When I shortened the names I had originally had given, the clips transferred just fine!

The irony of all ironies is that FCP allows the editor to name the takes with more than 26 characters, only for him to find out later that it won’t work. If that’s going to be the issue, FCP should just not let the editor type in anything longer than what’s permitted.

OMG! Who would have thought?!?! 🙂
