And that fixed it.

Thank you. I hope you know how much help you’ve given both the posting and lurking masses over the years.
Looking forward to more tweets and blogs in the future.

Best,

Charlie

Whoop, I just realized that the codec I posted wasn’t pro res. I was reading the 422 too quickly.

If it is a problem with the codecs is there any way to resolve it without transcoding before ingest?

And is there a reason why this would spontaneously start happening or is it just a “joy” of FCP
that to this point I’d been fortunate enough not to experience.

Shane, thanks for the reply. I follow your blog and daily on twitter. You’re always an amazing source for information.

It’s actually a problem I’m having with various projects. One incorporates a lot of different codecs (including HDV)
but I’ve have the same problem exporting from another timeline that I believe was straight pro-res

(all the clips were Apple XDCAM HD422 1080p24 (50 Mb/s CBR), 1920 x 1080, Millions
24-bit Integer (Little Endian), 8 Channels, 48.000 kHz)

It’s something that just started happening as I’ve been exporting from FCP 7 for years and have never had this issue.
I don’t know if that points to a possible hardware issue, or if FCP 7 could just become buggy overnight.

I used the Mercury Elite-AL Pro Dual-Bay raids on a feature I cut a few years ago.
The drives were a bit noisy, but other than that, worked perfectly.

The customer service at OWC is also fantastic.
