Footage crossing over 2 P2 cards, Premiere import glitch

[chromeboy007]

Hey guys,

To keep it short, the last clip of my first card, clip 0054, recorded over to card 2. Viewing from Finder, 0054 is around 1.69 GB and its second half, 0001 on card 2, is 2.26 GB or something.

When both cards are imported over the Premiere 5.5. Both clips are called 0054, which is what it is supposed to do. But, both clips are showing the same footage, the first half from card 1 only.

I checked card 2 on my HPX, imported 0001 into FCP5 (which doesn't require transcoding, but the audio and video files are broken up), it is the correct footage, the second half of the take. But Premiere doesn't recognize it as such. More strangely, even the audio of 0001 is correct on Premiere.

So what gives? No need to panic cuz I got the footage, but it is strange.

Thanks

When you tried it with FCP? No transcoding? How is that? Did you L&T into FCP? If it works there you can then just import the QT into APP.
But, to backup, Did you use Software to get ALL the card media off the P2 card onto the HD first? Like P2CMS? or Shotput?
Then back it up, then import into APP from the HD?
