I do that by recording to Mini-DV tape… (but never with the camera mic of course)

Make sure all used media lives on local drives. If you are networked, unplug the network cable and see if any media becomes off line.

Park your scene on desired fraem, “shift N” generally gives you a solid still of whatever is in the canvas window, and sends it to the viewer. Also a nice way to “collapse” all layers of an imported Photoshop file so you can sacale position, etc.

It might be possible your project is trying to access some file thru your network… a definite cause for something like this. Try disconnecting all drives from your network.

Have you tried to merely crop the sides in?

We just shot all day… 8 minutes per card (DVCPro50) on 2-4GB cards… Interviews mainly. It is a new way to play for sure, but I really think we’ll all get used to this methodology. I HIGHLY recommend having more than 2 cards. We had a few moments when the Powerbook would hang upon ejecting the P2 card after ingesting footage into FCP using the “Import P2” style of transfer. This caused a few tense moments of “Did it stick” ?” and we would then re-insert the card to be certain the clips were on the hard drive.
We used a LaCie 250 GB USB drive as our capture scratch. It is really quiet and it worked fine to capture/ingest to, and played back everything fine, though we did not edit with it on site. DVD burning was really slow and during the hectic moments of “the next guy is here, we need to shoot” it was too stressfull, so we don’t think we’ll be doing a lot of on-site DVD burning.

Thanks Liam… it is on its way…

Yep, they moved this function so that you can right click on the clip (after you make it offline) and go to “clip settings” and change the number of audio tracks there… still “kludgey” but it seems to work.
Jeesh! RTFM Jeff!

Yep. Same here. Anyone have a solution?
