For those of you searching...
You when you recorded it you didn't follow my rules (not that you KNEW my rules... (but they never fail for me...))
When filming 24pA:
1) NEVER turn your camera off before stopping the record with the red button
2) NEVER preview your material... end frame detect works most of the time, but if you don't use that it will NEVER work right.
3) NEVER switch scenes with the scene wheel during shooting on one tape - yes, it does happen!!
4) ALWAYS dbl check your scratch folder before you start to capture - it may have reset to your documents folder on your system drive.
That said...
I've broken my own rules (This past week actually) and hosed myself on capture. Here's how I fixed it:
Capture the whole thing in DV/NTSC standard 29.97 codec. Load it into the viewer and put in/out points around the camera's start/stop areas or 'scenes'. Move the I/O points away from the first and last frames by 3-5 frames and FILE-EXPORT-QTMOVIE-Current Settings-SelfContained.
Do it for EACH SCENE!!!
Then, re-import them into FCP and select them in the browser TOOLS - Remove Advanced Pulldown. Do them one at a time to make sure you are doing it correctly.
Good luck,
