Media Manager Problem with Batch Capture

[Peter Spenceley]

Hi There,

I am media managing a sequence in order to upgrade from ProRes Proxy to ProRes 422. The media originates from a Sony HDR AX200E camera with no tape involvement.

I’ve had no problem with ingesting using log and transfer and editing the AVCHD files as Prores Proxy.

I media manage the sequence and make a copy. I set up Log and transfer with the new settings (ProRes 422, and location of the original AVCHD media which I had copied from the camera to a separate drive. I put the sequence off line. So far so good. Then I attempt to batch capture the sequence and get the following message.

“The selection contains clips that originate on both file based devices and tapes. The clips from tapes will be processed first and the file based clips after that.”

Then another message, “Unable to initialise HDV deck. Please make sure deck is connected.”

When I attempt to proceed with the batch capture it does capture some of the files, but not others. There are no files from tapes.

Any ideas?

Peter
