Thanks, Johnny,
I should be a little more specific about why the files I’m seeing are concerning me. The DNxHD clips I get from After Effects are around three or four times as large as if an editor exported a clip from Avid in DNxHD. MediaInfo is reporting bit rates in the 700s instead of what I’d expect from the bit rate specified in the codec settings inside After Effects.

Eventually, I decided to drop my media drive from three partitions to two. Now everything works fine. Also make sure that you haven’t upgraded to QuickTime7. OS 10.3 doesn’t like it.

Nope, internal HD, Seagate 7200 RPM drive. Also previously used a Western Digital Caviar 7200 RPM drive… worked great until just recently, then this problem killed it. I’ve done just about everything except reinstall Final Cut. Looks like that’s what I’m going to end up doing.

Unfortunately, I am not capturing from a camera or deck, I am capturing through a Canopus ADVC-100. I can’t mark in and out points.

Working with a fresh Seagate hard drive in my machine, I am having the same problem with Capture Now locking up. The factor that seems to be causing the trouble is when I capture for more than five minutes. I had this happen twice on a capture longer than that. After forcing the computer to shut down, I looked at my media drive and noticed the clip I had been capturing had expanded to fill up the drive to the limit I set in scratch disks.
Recapturing in pieces under 5 minutes allowed me to continue with no trouble.

Actually, let me elaborate. None of the partitions showed up under the Directory tab in Disk Warrior. The drive itself showed up under the “Hardware” tab, but I could only select “Test Device” under Manual Diagnostics. The test reported that the drive’s built-in S.M.A.R.T. diagnostics indicate the drive is functioning normally.

Yes, I booted from the CD-ROM and it still did not see that drive.
