It seems that Firestore is addressing the issue next week. Thanks for the suggestion on the Firestore Forum Shane.

My first step was to “Organize Clips” on the Firestore, before connecting to my Mac. Then, upon importing from the Firestore, the diologue box has the option to “remove duplicate frames”. I checked that as well. Those are the only 2 things that I can assume you’re referring to. If you think I missed something, please let me know.
Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for your reply, and your suggestion. I tried posting there yesterday and haven’t heard a peep. Would you know why the frames are on the Firestore, but vanish on import? If not, no sweat. Just getting frustrated at this point. So much for “state of the art”.
Thanks again. -
Hi There,
I’m not sure if its a problem to just jump into the middle of a thread, so forgive me for the inexperience. I added a post to the forum in an attempt to get some answers on a similar problem I’m having, but didn’t get any responses yet. I guess the Firestore is a new technologyt and there’s not a lot of users with experience out there yet.
My problem is that I recorded footage from an HVX200 in HD720 24P to the FS-100. When I import the footage in FCP Studio, it looses at least 1 frame on the beginning and a few on the end of the clip. When I imported the clips via P2 under Import, I checked the box on the bottom (rmove duplicate frames) which (I think) keeps the footage in 24P. I put the clips onto a 24P timeline and it looses a frame, so there’s a little jump in the video/audio. Now when I tried importing the clips without checking the “remove duplicat frame” box, it imports the clips as 60fps. There are no lost fromes now, but I need to edit on a 30fps timeline now. This isn’t acceptable to my client, as he has Varicam footage and wants to keep everything in 24P. I tried changing the TC Rate as you suggested, but it won’t allow me to. Do you have any suggestions on what to do or where to get answers. I just got a call back from Focus Enhancements tech support and they just reffered me to the downloadable PDF files they have available on the web.
Thanks for your time reading this saga,

Peter,
Thanks for your reply. I was hoping to play a finished product off of the timeline in FCP, and record it onto a DVD-R. I thought that the firewire might send an output to the Lite On 5005 like it does to our DV decks. Just wishful thinking?
Thanks again,
Robert
