thanks Vincent, that definitely sounded like the right solution but I haven’t been able to make it work. Whether I tick the box or not I’m confronted with the same issue and a squence that bares no resemblance to my edit!

Seeing as you mentioned it, I did interpret all the Fs700 footage to 50p in the project panel. I do this to speed up the edit, whilst retaining the option to go to slow-mo. Could this be causing the problems and if so why only on the relink?

Thanks, good to know.

So I spoke with Startech, the manufacturer of the dock today and there technical advisor informed me that this particular dock doesn’t support Apple RAID 1 software configuration. So as you rightly suggested Chris I’m going to swap out the hardware and start over. Thanks for the help in troubleshooting this problem.

With regards the new hardware has anyone any recommendations? The technical advisor pointed me in the direction of this enclosure

But as its for weekly backups I kind of liked the tool-less design of the previous dock. Not a deal breaker though, As this will be the third solution I will have purchased It’s important now to just get something that works.

Thanks

[Chris Murphy] “So the kernel panic only happened after creating a software raid1 array? And the drive erase operation that took three days was successful for both drives?”

Correct.

[Chris Murphy] “Can you post the kernel panic to pastebin and post the URL in the forum?”

[Chris Murphy] “Do you get a kp when only one of the drives is inserted into the docking station?”

Yes I tried mounting them one at a time and they cause a kp individually as well

UPDATE
I’m been away for a few weeks but this morning I successfully mounted each drive long enough to format to Mac OS Extended (journaled) in disk utility.

They are currently both mounted in the dock and I’ve been performing a few basic read/write functions to each.

I’m about to try setting them up as a RAID 1 pair again using the ‘best practice’ ie. don’t zero out the data and format each as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), correct ?

If I configure them as RAID 1 again and get the kp we know its the dock don’t we?

[Luke Ogden]

Interesting, there seems to be quite a few of conflicting ideas and the subject; some new and old school thought.

Ok I’ll try get the drives mounted on a window system long enough to re-format the drives, although I’m a bit freaked out now so may just send them back.

Tried accessing the drives using the dock connected to my rMBP, Which also caused a kernel panic as does accessing the drives one at a time. It’s surprising because the drives where reliable and docked simultaneously for 3+ days whilst formatting but now I cant get them to stay mounted for two minutes without the panic.

Ok so a simple hard drive enclosure setup as RAID 1 with disk utility it is.

Anyone have any recommendations for brands/models preferably with tool less HDD bays? The one I just sent back really wasn’t very nice.

Just as a little side note, its actually the Current Time Indicator you need to be over the targeted cut, NOT the cursor.

As requested here is the extra info:

• After Effects CS6 Version 11.0.2.11
• Mac OS X Version 10.7.5
• iMac 3.4Ghz i7
• 16GB Ram
• Footage: 1280×720 .MXF (dynamically linked from Premiere)
• I’m running Premiere at the same time

I’ve run into the problem again; It was after I had done my rotoscoping and as I was adding ‘Background’ elements to the composite (Pre-keyed stock footage which come as PNG Sequences) these green error frames come up in seemingly ramdom places and rotoscope work I’ve done and moved on from gets all screwed up as a result.

thanks

Luke

Thanks Alex, I think option 2 sounds slightly more appealing.
It’s a shame because I’m sure in FCP there was a collapse multicam function that did exactly this but hey-hoy, still learning about the premiere pros and cons.

Anyone have any ideas on how to do a similar thing with the dynamic linked comps? I’ve had trouble exporting the dynamic comps out of the Ae in the past, which would be the obvious method.
