I have not worked with AVCHD for a while. As I mentioned in an
earlier post reinstalling the OS and FC Studio solved the problem and allowed me to finish the project. I do not know if it was just a temporary fix. I have had no response from Apple.

Hi. I reinstalled FC Studio and OS X and it is again working. I don’t know for how long. Long and Transfer does not crash in both Final Cut Studio and imovie8 also transfers properly.

Hi Martin. I agree. Sony is making it very difficult and, as you said, it worked fine at first…very weird. I have tried every variable I can think of. I have posted the problem with Larry Jordan and every place else I can think of.
If you have any other thoughts please let me know.
It is sad since when it was working the video was great (although, as you said, after transfer to FCP the file size is much larger) but it was working. Too weird.

Thanks,

Rob

Hi Martin. That is exactly my situation. I too tried the new imovie and had the exact same crash. The frustration is that FCP with the new AVC plugin worked fine inicially. Now it only crashes.

Subject: Re: FCP crashes on Log and Transfer

I wish I could tell you. I am now having the same problem. Log and Transfer crashes or just simply won’t recognize the Panasonic AVCHD file structure, so no files appear.

Very strange.

Let me know if you find anything out. Sounds like a bug.

Best,
M

Everytime I test something new and FCP crashes I report it to Apple. So far no responses.
