Here’s the rule of thumb with digital video capturing:
The slower your drives and the longer the clip you are capturing, the more succeptible you are to receive dropped frames. Capture Now exacerbates this issue.

In Disk Utility, you can repair permissions. I do this once a week.
Disk Warrior rebuilds your directory, but you have to purchase that.Neither of these tools will damage anything on your drives.

Lay back to DV tape and put it on your shelf. That’s what I would do.

You should not have to close the Log and Capture Window before batching. Something sounds wrong. Since you ditched prefs, I’d re-install FCP.

Hey Bryce. First of all, I need to know. Is that a quote from “Hazel”? 😉 It’s the only Mr. B I can recall.
Next, I can see where you’d want quick access to old media. In a post-house environment where turnaround and changes are more the course of the day. I agree that drives are so cheap, so why not just leave the media on the drive and remove it from your machine or a FireWire enclosure and then slam in a new one?
I used to use DLTs for backups at a post house I used to work at. Now that sure seemed like a waste of time.

What kind of drives are you using then? Are they daisy chained to a cheap camcorder?
