Final Cut Pro: Tips for archiving memory card-based media

Standard tapeless workflows involve reformatting and reusing the memory cards used for shooting. Before reformatting the cards, it's prudent to make a backup copy of your media on hard disk, whether for safety or for recapture later on. This article discusses guidelines for reliable backup. Note: It's important to preserve the original names and folder structure found on the memory card so that the media will be recognized and handled correctly when retrieving the archive. If you try to access media from a memory card that you saved to a hard disk then changed its folder name or structure, Final Cut Pro warns you with a message like this: Warning "Folder Name" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media. Other transfer software may also be unable to open media files copied from memory cards if the folder names or folder structure has changed. This article discusses archiving memory cards like the following: Panasonic P2 cards containing MXF-wrapped media Sony SxS cards containing XDCAM EX media SDHC cards containing AVCHD media

SM(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						     SM(4)

NAME
sm -- SMC91Cxx-based Ethernet interfaces device driver SYNOPSIS
sm0 at isa? port 0x300 irq 10 sm* at mhzc? sm* at pcmcia? function ? sm* at nubus? DESCRIPTION
The sm device driver supports SMC91C9x-based and SMC91C1xx-based Ethernet interfaces. The ISA attachment of the sm driver supports any SMC91C9x-based Ethernet interface on the ISA bus, including the EFA Info*Express SVC VLB interface, and the on-board SMC91C9x Ethernet found in many embedded PCs and laptop docking stations. The mhzc attachment of the sm driver supports the Megahertz combo Ethernet and modem card. The PCMCIA attachment of the sm driver supports Megahertz X-JACK Ethernet cards. The nubus attachment of the sm driver supports SMC-based Ethernet cards for the macintosh. MEDIA SELECTION
The SMC91C1xx supports the MII interface and so the list of supported media depends on several factors, including which PHY is attached. The SMC91C9x supports AUI and UTP media types. To enable the AUI media, select the 10base5 or aui media type with ifconfig(8)'s media directive. To select UTP, select the 10baseT or utp media type. ifconfig(8)'s -m option will display the full list of supported media directives for a particular configuration. DIAGNOSTICS
sm0: unable to read MAC address from CIS This indicates that the Ethernet address, which is stored in the CIS information on the Megahertz X-JACK PCMCIA Ethernet card, is corrupted. SEE ALSO
