File I/O Error-jerk
Hello all,
I’ve been editing for over 6 years and have never heard about this error. I’ve used my 1st external without ever receiving it. I’ve used my current external for over a year without receiving it, until now. A day earlier I exported just fine, the same way I always do, and now all of a sudden here it is.
I checked to see if it was a corrupt file or sequence using the FCS Maintenance pack and it found some files, I deleted them, etc and it still came up.
So is the only answer to buy a new external and format it to FAT32 or is there another way? If that is the case then why would it happen all of a sudden? Is that just the doom we all will encounter when using fickle, temperamental non-SSD’s?

If I read this right, you’re using the wrong formatting for the drives. Should be Mac OS extended.

Yeah, why format your drives for anything but a Mac?
You want OSX Extended journaled.

I double-checked the info and the drive I’m using is Mac OSX journaled.
Like I said, it was exporting fine and all of a sudden it had the file.

Ok. I know now that it is just one project that won’t export, others are fine, my external is fine. Good.
I noticed that there are some dropped frames in my project, could that be the file I/O error?
If so, I’ve tried some techniques to beat the dropped frames but to no avail, any ideas?
Thanks you guys

Sounds like a corrupt file in there somewhere…

Right, that is what I thought and I ran a corrupt file scan. I’ve even trashed the prefs and done a whole bunch of other RT adjustments.
Do I need to increase the speed of my drives? It hasn’t been a problem before and it works fine on other projects.
Any other ideas?
