Q: FCP X. won't import over. 20 minutes
In trying to import video from a tape based camera into a video archive, FCP X WILL ONLY IMPORT 20 minutes of a 1 hr. tape.
i Have selected external storage for media, libraries, and archive files. When the tape has run out, it is rewound and when I inspect the files only the first 9 gig (about 20 min.) has been imported. There was no message that importing had stopped or that there was a storage problem. (4TB external drive)
I Tried this twice following the help user guide procedures and it performed identically both times.
im afraid I'll have to babysit this machine and use Quick Time to import the tapes manually.. I have over 130 hours to digitize. Help
Shouldnt this be automatic?
What am I doing wrong?
