Final Cut Pro: Incomplete transfer when ingesting VDU clips

  • Last Modified: September 12, 2008

Symptoms

Sometimes when you ingest clips from a VDU (video disk unit) device, the transfer may not complete.  If this happens, a warning icon "!" displays next to the affected clips in the queue. If you mouse over the alert, a tooltip "Error: No Data" appears.

Products Affected

Final Cut Pro 6.x

Resolution

This may happen if you are ingesting both AVCHD (advanced video codec high definition) and VDU material in the same session. Try one of these two workarounds:

  • Ingest all the VDU clips first, then ingest the AVCHD clips.
  • Ingest the AVCHD material first, then close and reopen the Log and Transfer window before you ingest the VDU clips.
