I searched the archives but didn’t find anything that pertains to my situation.

I’m using the Apple fibre channel controller. I’m using Raid Admin 1.5 and have firmware 1.5 installed. I just downloaded firmware 1.3.3 and I’ll give that a try.

Thanks

Just to clarify my previous post, my ATI Radeon 9600XT has 128 MB VRAM not 12 MB as I accidently posted earlier.

I’m running a G5 dual 2.5 with the stock ATI Radeon 9600 XT card that has 12MB of VRAM.

I’ve lost raids due to a corrupt file several times in the past. Disk Warrior from Alsoft saved my bacon each time and allowed me to rebuild the raid.

https://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/

If your raid is recoverable, disk warrior will let you mount it temporarily to the desktop. During this time you can back up any files needed. After you back it up, disk warrior will allow you to rebuild the raid.

It would be great if you can identify the corrupt file and avoid it in the backup process until all your other files are safely backed up. Chances are pretty good that corrupt file is toast. If you try copying it, you might loose your raid again. I would just forget about that file and recapture it.

I hope it works as well for you as it always has for me. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Thanks Flo

I think my problem is network related. This morning I transfered the files via ethernet and I couldn’t get them to open on the 8.2.3 system. They will play back in QT player and the get info command shows they’re Media 100 NTSC but they won’t import to a bin.

This afternoon I copied the same files from my HD system to a firewire drive and everything opened up just as you would expect.

I can live with sneaker-netting with a firewire drive but for very small projects, the ethernet is faster.

Thanks

Thanks Drollo.

What program did you use for testing?

Jamie

You may find that you need to adjust both brightness and contrast to achieve good results. The one time I used compressor 2 with Media 100 HD I set compressor’s brightness to to (-5.6) and the contrast to (+3.3).

This was just a totally fly by the seat of my pants adjustment and it worked out ok. Funny thing is I when viewing the output of the burned disc it appeared slightly different than viewing the the MPEG stream in DVD-SP or QuickTime player.

I haven’t gotten around to trying something more scientific because most of our encoding is done via a tape based hardware encoder.

Good Luck

I thought my eyes were playing tircks on me but I noticed the same thing. And it is repeatable. Guess I’ll have to avoid rendering FastFX whenever possible.

Thanks

There are a number of ways to do this. The easiest is to open your timeline. Select all. Then option drag the clips from the timeline to your new bin. I do it all the time.

If you don’t option drag you get a composite clip. Just one clip that represents your whole program.

Good Luck

Wayne
