    Yes, please change it to the one associated with my profile.

    There really should be an easier way to do this. No?

    Thank you!

  • Not that this helps much but it’s probably a FS5 or FS7 and it’s XAVC. Lately I’ve had to deal with footage from a FS7 and those extra 6 channels of audio are basically user error from the operator not knowing their gear well. Even though there’s really no audio, those 6 tracks still waste space. Those camera’s default to 8 channels and from several people who use them, nobody checks settings :-\

    Since I’m still on MC 5.5.4 I just transcode with Resolve which gives me the 2 channels of audio that are there.

    I’m reasonably certain it can record 1920 x 1080 60i as well

    maybe they’re op1a out of Resolve instead of opAtom?

    Without having more information, that light serves 2 purposes, power on & drive activity light. So the flickering normally would mean drive activity (I’m near certain you already know this)

    I have 2 of the older G-Raid models with e-sata. One originally had a 2TB capacity where within a year the light would completely go out for periods of time but the drive was still working. GTechnology said the whole drive would need to be replaced because they don’t “service” drives, which I thought was ridiculous. He admitted he had seen this LED behavior before but had no explanation. I later came to the conclusion it’s temperature related. The warmer it got the LED would would show this odd behavior.

    Two years or so later though that 2TB drive started showing signs of failure. It was out of warranty and after doing a bit or research I discovered the same controller inside is the same for their 2TB & 4TB models. I ended up buying two 2TB WD Enterprise drives, taking it apart & swapping them out myself making it 4TB as well. So if you do end up having to replace them, it’s not that difficult to do it yourself.

    Btw, I discovered they had cheaper Hitachi Deskstar drives in the 2TB model instead of Ultrastar’s like in their 4TB+ for some reason.

    by “idle” do you mean just when it’s not playing? If so, when paused try hitting CTRL/COMMAND + K or L to get it back to normal

    How exactly do you go about this, Glenn?

    I’ve never used TAW but my suggestion… if there’s no way to replace the assets, save your project. Close TAW. Navigate to where that video file is and rename it. Rename your new file to the same name as the original.

  • I’m starting to think you should inspect the original source footage regarding the stuttering. The shooter may have unknowingly had the shutter set to 1/30, where it’s going to repeat the first field. Check it out in MC and step through each field (shift + left/right arrow buttons)
