Hi there,

I have two ext hard drives that i use as capture scratches in FCP6.
When i go into system settings and select the capture scratch, the footage doesnt capture to both drives... a folder appears on the drive but no clips...

Does anybody who where i am going wrong??

Thanks a lot!

That's not possible as far as I'm aware.

Just capture as normal, then copy your footage folder over to your second destination.

Oh okay. Why are there 4 options for capture scratches within system settings then...?
Is that if you want to for example send the video files to one folder, audio files to another and the render files to another... but within the same drive...?

I think it would be a great feature to be able to capture to multiple drives, especially when using things like solid state cards out in the field and you need multiple back-up copies... It would save a lot of time not having to duplicate the files afterwards.

Thanks a lot.
