Oh and thanks for your help. I’m thinking it might be something wrong with my system since all this footage imports into other people’s systems just fine.
Oh one clarification. We’re not importing P2 cards, we’re importing P2 footage that was downloaded onto a harddrive. All this P2 footage can be imported fine when using someone else’s computer/system but when I use my computer and FCP 5.1.4 it doesn’t work. I get a red exclamation point and an error message.
It was an AE7 project, not only that but i’ve had alot of trouble opening any AE7 project over 1 mb. in some cases i’ve had to collect just the comp i wanted to use. really wierd.
