The manual does need some updating, but you can find it in the “Media 100 Suite” menu, under “Launch”. There are also short docs about some new workflow aspects, like Multichannel Audio mixing.

Sounds like you have upgraded to MacOSX 10.6.8 in the meantime. Unfortunately this update broke the MJPEG-B QuickTime Codec. which is the base for the Media 100 i codec. This was fixed in 10.7.2 (I believe), but not in the 10.6.x line anymore.
So you either need to downgrade to 10-.6.7 again (reinstall of some sort, Time Machine backup maybe?), or you need to move to 10.7.2 and up, which probably means updating to Media 100 Suite 2.1 as well.

This is a disk error. Either you have a problem with your media drive, like a hardware failure or a corrupted directory, or you have a single damaged media file in your media directory.
First thing would be to do a disk repair either in DiskUtility (in Applications->Utilities) or in Diskwarrior (https://www.alsoft.com).
If these find errors, let the app fix them. Then go into your projects media directory, and have a look at the files in the Finder. Maybe you already can spot a damaged one there.

What happens if you drop your HD clips in a SD 4:3 timeline? They should downscale and play back in realtime (in lower quality). This should work for editing, and even rendering the (used) clips in the 4:3 timeline should work as expected.

Hi Marc,
which software version are you using? There were some older versions that had problems conforming progressive source clips. Not sure if this is your problem, though.
If you are on 2.0 or up, can you use the realtime format mixing?

[Jaeson Koszarsky] “Select In Range ALL Tracks – an expansion of Select In Range In Track.
“🙂 This one is easy to fix. Simply use the “Select in Range” command from the “Program” menu, which shows up when pressing the Option/Alt key. And if you want to use it often (as we do), you can assign it to a keyboard shortcut via the System Preferences->Keyboard->Application Shortcuts. I have mapped it to Option-Command-J, which is close to Option-Command-H for “select from here”

Unfortunately the newer drivers currently don´t work with Media 100. The application needs to be updated to include support for never versions.

It only unsyncs and leaves the files on the drives.

No, the Calibrated tools are needed to use the files within Media 100. Media 100 relies mostly on QuickTime, and there are no AVC Intra and XMF-supporting files included in Quicktime.

Yeah, for all non-tape-based formats it is important to keep the file structure (all subfolders and everything) intact, so that the applications will recognize the content. This is true for P2 as well as XDCam and many of the other drive-based recording formats, and it is important not only to Media 100 but to most applications.
If you can get the missing files and if you can recreate the folder structure as it was on the recording device, you most likely can use FCPs “Log and Transfer” or Media 100s AVC Intra import to import the files.
