miniDV and DVCAM are fragile tape formats. I would use a new tape for your final/final/final/final/that’s a wrap final master.
D-Beta and BetaSP are more robust and can be rerecorded on 10+ times or more, at least if you buy a premium brand of tape.

What version of Media100 to what version of FCP? The last version of Media100 I used was Media 100i 7.5 on the Mac.
To get my old projects from M100 to FCP I used the CMX 3600 EDL export. The caveat is your reel names need to be 8 characters or the EDL will truncate them to 8 which may become unrecognizable.
This only works for simple timelines with just cuts and maybe a few dissolves. Effects don’t translate if I remember correctly. Your graphics may or may not come in as named placeholders.
You might want to rephrase your post to “Translation from Media 100 to Final Cut Pro via AAF/OMF possible?” I would include your work flow in the post to answer the question of why the project started in M100 and then ended up in FCP. It is easier for people to suggest workarounds.
You might want to read this article to see all the players in the AAF/OMF scheme EventDV.net: AAF Gets Traction–but be aware that of the time this article 2003 everything was vaporware (theoretical).
Maybe you could come up with some lashup by exporting as OMF–as if going to Avid–from M100 and use Automatic Duck Pro Import FCP to read the file, but this is a $495 experiment on you part.

From a post by Fred P. on the eyeon Software Digital Fusion List at
LAFFEY Computer Imaging Fusion Resources:
“Here is how we are attacking the problem of the gama flag in quicktime movies causing movies made on the pc to look dark when played on macs. After the movie is created, you need to execute the following command from a shell.gsar.exe -sgama -rgggg -o filename.mov
obviously, to do this, you need the gsar program which can be found at https://www.jsifaq.com/subL/tip5800/rh5801.htm
-s is the search flag, so it is searching your movie for the “gama” attribute
-r is the replace flag, so in this example it is replacing gama with gggg which means nothing to quicktime, so in effect it has no effect on the movies gama correction at playback any longer.”Note that the “gama” is not a misspelling. This hack was created by researching QuickTime File Format Specification Documentation
You would think that there would be a Use or Not Use Gamma switch in applications like QuickTime Pro and FCP for export alternatives for cross platform compatibility.

aja.com – AJA_Data_Rate_Calculator_102b11.zip might come in handy for data rates and storage requirments–AJA Data Rate Calculator, and it’s a Mac application that calculates data rates and storage requirements for a given video size, format, frame rate, etc.
