I’d honestly like to recompress it to “anything” that will allow me to multiclip this ProRes footage, then upres it back to ProRes once done. I’ve been successful multiclipping 7 cameras in DVCPRO HD, so I thought I’d try that, then reconnect back to the ProRes once I’m out of multiclip world. But for some reason, FCP6 will not allow me to recompress this to “any” format, DV, DVCPRO, etc.

Also, I’m not sure if I’m doing a good job explaining myself. I want to edit all the multiclip stuff in a lower res format so I can use these 7 cameras. Then, relink back to the original ProRes footage after I’ve collapsed the multiclip. Does that make sense? If so, is this even the right process?

Thanks again.

So then v 5.1.4 should remedy this issue? The reason I ask is because we have 2 versions, the older (5.0.4) is saying a clip is corrupt. The newer (5.1.4) is actually crashing on the same clip. I’m not saying that this is an FCP issue. But I’d like to understand why some clips will import and some will not. BTW, all clips and data is viewable in the P2 Log software (Imagine Products) so, this is even more perplexing.

Bump…

Any word from Pany @ NAB on the 16 gb P2 cards? Was told by a rental company they’d have them next week, but I’m skeptical.

(Yippie…this is my very first post!)
