Are you attempting to make a HD DVD? If so that format was DISCONTINUED as a media format before Apple was able to offer full support (it only had partial support at the time HD DVD was done away with)

Does the tape play in the camera?
Also your FCP capture settings are SD settings and your camera playback settings are to not downconvert HDV. I am betting that your tape was shot in HDV, and your camera is sending out a HDV signal but your computer is looking for a DV signal.
Think of it like this your camera is speaking german but you have told your computer to listening for Spanish.

[Andy Davidson Taylor] “Drives are formatted for MS-DOS (FAT32) “
And there is your problem. There is a 4GB file size limit with FAT32. Copy off any important files and reformat the drives to MacOS Extended.

If you have iMovie 08 that is the easiest way to do it. Export your HD file out of FCP bring it into imovie and then use the send to youtube option.

[Adam Mercado] “And this IS a collaborative industry after all.”
Yes it is a collaborative industry. But the point I am trying to make is that during that collaboration there is usually some discussion as to what type of system the project will be edited on, and once that is determined you capture with that in mind.
Your posts put out the vibe that you feel that any captured footage should be able to be freely captured with any editing software. This is just simply not going to happen.
You asked about “workflow” of using one companies propriety format on another companies proprietary software. And like I have been trying to say that is NOT a good workflow. it just leaves you open to to many potential problems.
Convert or recapture are the best options.

It’s not useless. Keep in mind that more things then FCP will use ram on the computer. The OS and every other app running will all use some ram, so if you only have 2GB then FCP cannot use all of that 2GB because the OS and other apps will be using some of it.

As far as work flow goes most people edit dvcpro hd footage on the machine that they captured it on. Much fewer problems that day.

I believe that that codec only comes with the final cut studio software. You will need to purchase a copy for your computer to get that codec.
