unable to batch capture HDV footage in FCP 5

[Allan Barnwell]

I too have been experiencing this problem. I have a Kona 2 in the Dual 2.0 that I am using, and after reading posts above, uninstalled the Kona 2 drivers and software. Then I reinstalled Final Cut (may be unecessary).

The FCP project files I previously had logged were still not able to be batch captured, but a newly created project with newly logged footage can be. So I guess the issue lies in the data being saved to the log file and not in the FCP application. It also seems to be an AJA/Blackmagic combination issue with the Z1U.

For those of you using a Blackmagic Decklink card, be sure to use the Blackmagic HDV easy setup, rather than the generic Apple HDV. Sorry, but I don’t have any advice for those with any other specific hardware setups.

The cheese stands alone.
