Hello all,
I am having a weird issue with my HVX200 and FCP. Yesterday, I shot an interview in 720p 30n and ended up with multiple takes. I ingested the footage into FCP 5.1.4 using the import Panasonic P2 option. I noticed after import that one of the clip was only partially imported. When I tried to play it on the FCP timeline, the video was accelerated and incomplete, the sound was playing at the right speed but incomplete as well. I tried to re-import but had no luck. I erased all the imported files from my Mac and tried the importation process once again; unfortunately I got the same result. Getting back to the camera, I played the clip. I was glad to see that it was complete and sounded just fine, just like the rest of the clips from that interview. I could not figure out why this clip was giving me trouble. I finally worked around the problem by plugging the camera into the computer and doing a log and capture. I am not quite sure of what's on the go here. Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Thanks for taking the time to answer.
 
Yes, still not sure what the problem was. However, I copied the footage from my P2 card onto a external hard drive then did a L&T into FCP and that worked perfectly (Audio and Video were in sync). I'm still trying to find out what the problem IS.
