Hey guys,

had my first little glitch tonight working with P2. I pulled a card out of the camera, and when I went to import to FCP, it wouldn't pull the card up, even the the p2 was mounted on the desktop. I restarted a few times, powerdown and ejected the card. Nothing. I put it back in the camera, and got an error that the card was corrupted. I then plugged it back into the laptop, and copied the raw data to my g raid, and there it sits still. I formated the corrput p2 card in camera, shot on it, it worked fine. I imported the shot, no problems here. I then copied t he corrupt data off the graid onto the card, and once again the card wouldn't work. Is there any workaround for this so that I can get my footage into FCP? This is from a pretty big scene in my feature and this problem is just killing me.

Yes, most of them it won't allow me to repair. 1 or 2 of them I can click to repair, but it doesn't do anything.
 
That sounds kind of weird,

i think is better to contact someone like Jan!

Did you update teh firmware of your p2?is it 4 or 8gig?
 
I am not sure about it, but a si recall, there were some issues, specially on 8gig cards BEFORE the firmware, so go on the panasonic page, download the p2 frimware update, put your card in a pcmcia slot in pc/laptop and update!(i am not sure if it works via usb/firewire in the hvx as well, but should theoreticly be no problem)

the link for download page is: https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro.../p2indexe.html
( iam not sure if the link works, if not, go to this one and click on the link of jan, that one works!- http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=62695&highlight=viewer+download )

If all this doesnt work, then theres maybe a "real" problem with you p2 card and you should contact panasonic..let us know!
