Hi, I checked and pixel peeped as much as possible this evening, I found out as mentioned by Ralph B that the "while recording" clips have a nicer knee applied, everything looks a bit darker when recording except dark areas which come out a bit less dark. Final Cut and Avic MC see some clipping in non-recording clips. So it looks like the recording mode is better then nonrecording for Ninjas recording of GH2's HDMI.
Now to the disappearing clips. strangely there where double subfolders with the same name on the drive, a normally impossible thing for windows. I could rename them with a "a" numbering to recuperate. But some subfolders have definetely vanished.
About the numbering system for all editing systems we get a problem when clips are in seperate subfolders. I work mostly in Avid MC 5.0 I need to import every clip as a single AMA-Import this is tedious. I simply suggest a namingform of CLIP0000_0 for the first of a batch of 4gig to CLIP0000_1 for the next 4gig chunk etc. When recording is newly started give us CLIP0001_0 etc. So all NON -FCP editors can simply move all clips into one folder and happily import/link into their application. As Barry wrote Final Cut is not the only editing programm that works happily with Prores files. For 3D work for example we rely on Avid MC where we can watch 3d content directly on an attached 3d-monitor.
So this could be so easy, do we really have to create or use a renaming program ? Please pretty please....
Finally what i found out about the Fieldquirk: Only the second field of the interlaced clips recorded have this upperhalf-wrong-content syndrom; creating a 50% slowmotion cutting fields showed the effect clearly.
I hope the vanishing clips wer realy a user-fault. We will continue to test and I will comment on any similiar glitches if they happen. We will impose a 1 minute spinndown waiting time on every disk removal from now on.
Thanks for reading Matthias

Not sure yet what to do.
