Same problem here. Came after the proapps update. Will work for a couple times after I trash preferences but then after a little while its right back to its old tricks. I think its a bug.

Thought so. Just the answer I wanted to hear. Thank you.

Thanks Jerry.
The system I’ll be capturing on doesn’t have FCP 6. Do I need to have the facility with the FCP 6 system create the project file, then open that project file in FCP 7 when I want to log and capture?
I guess the real question is once the media is captured is it JUST media that can be imported into any other edit? As long as its in a readable codec?

You will be able to open it once you have the avid codecs. But of course you can’t edit in the avid codec within fcp. You will need to use MPEG Streamclip or such to transcode it to an FCP friendly codec.

You can trash your cache and it will rebuild the thumbnails. Find your Final Cut Pro Documents folder and the thumbnail chase is in there.

When you open it in Quicktime, do you get a white screen at least? If so, try Window –> Show Movie Inspector. That will tell you what codec it is.

Cool. Thanks Rafael. Just did that.
Can I confirm that when working in NTSC I want to make sure I go to advanced and click capture interlace Lower Field first.
Also will there be any advantage to capturing ProResHQ when working from Digibeta? And would I get drive space savings vs 10bit uncompressed?

I’ve also learned that if you encode from Compressor to your hard drive and not directly to the BDR it will create a disc image. Use disk utility to burn the disc image onto as many copies as you want.

I did a little more digging. Just dragging and dropping will not work.
This is from Brian Gary in the Apple Discussions. Apparently there is a hidden program called Create Disc which will re-burn previously encoded jobs. This may work.
Create Disc is located in:
Hard Drive / Library/Application Support/Apple Qmaster/
(note: the above is your main library, NOT your user library)
If you launch Create Disc it has a File > Open Recent menu option. “Recent” burns will be located in that location. I use quotes because it calls up temporary aliases (similar to other “recent” options in other apps) to previous jobs.
