Struggling with hd on the 4000Pro

[methuenbill]

I cannot load any HD files into this unit. I can only load SD files. I have tried to load any quality HD file, it starts to load a few seconds or sometimes a few minutes and the cuts out with nothing in the scene bin. I tried to load a HD file as SD, it looks as if it is loading but ends with nothing in the scene bin. The file loads into the mac, but I would like to be able to do a HD file on the 4000.

There has been issues with the NX5 by Sony. Especially the external HD. Try to uncheck your first clip in the record area and check off the rest. Maybe other users can give you some advice for the camera.

Thanks I have tried all the hd settings both audio settings and nothing worked. I will be shooting tonight 1080i with pcl? audio. I will run a small clip about 30 sec. and will try to load the rest of the show. Do I need any special camera settings? I have shot two shows so far in both HD and SD. I have one more show tonight.

. . . I'd skip the PCL (presume you mean PCM audio) and use Dalby . . . Bogart still can't handle it unless you are prepared to just have a double mono left track
