Just a quick simple check for anyone having serious image issues which have seemingly come out of nowhere…I’ve had this happen on one of my projects before and before you drive yourself crazy make sure that the viewer and canvas windows are set to have a BLACK BACKGROUND. Changing the background to anything other than black (White, Checkerboard 1 or Checkerboard 2) can have a huge effect on the appearance of your footage in both the Viewer and Canvas windows.
Hope this saves someone some time and hair ripping manic confusion.

Checkerboard BG (same effect from white):

This URL will take you to the section of the website that has the XDCAM Drive software download.
For what it’s worth, I’m working on a project using these drive currently and all my software is up to date but I’m still getting horridly slow transfer speeds.

Hahahha! I had a client last month who needed some education about DVD creation.

I think I figured it out. The space that’s getting taken up is in the Virtual Memory Cache. I looked at the var/vm folder and it was loaded with almost 4.5GB of files. I’ve been running the computer rendering non-stop for several days so I guess it just built up after all that time. On restart I got all of the free space on my hard drive back…5.01GB from 861MB. Whew. 🙂

“I would check your preferences and set Cluster Options to ‘never copy source to cluster.'”
Had this setting when I rendered. Sorry about not mentioning is before but it didn’t seem to change anything. 🙁
