P2 Import from firestore
While on set, we did an “organize p2”, then we connected the firestore to the computer. We did Import > Panasonic P2 in FCP 5.1.2 and we imported all of the clips to a capture scratch set on an external hard drive. I just pulled up the external hard drive and all of the files are there as quicktime files, but they are each 32 KB and they don’t seem to have any video/audio. I am unable to import them into FCP or play them in Quicktime.
Anyone understand why?

P2 doesn’t create REAL media. Its the import process in FCP that combines the P2 meta/xml stuff into qt media.

Actually the new version of Firestore does create Quicktime files. No P2 “organization” or FCP P2 conversion is necessary. It does seem like he tried to import the wrong folder from the Firestore or mistakenly only created a shortcut to the media files.
