➤ Export to P2 limitations:
• Use Marks and Use Enabled tracks are ignored on export.
• All Audio must be PCM 16b/48K.
• All audio tracks will be exported, although P2 devices either support 2 or 4 audio tracks.
Therefore sequences should be built for delivery to the specified P2 playback device.
Sequences with 6 audio tracks will have 6 audio tracks and the P2 device will only
playback the first 2 or 4 tracks.
➤ Importing P2 limitations (Macintosh):
• Importing P2 Clips in a bin is only supported with one P2 Card mounted. With two or
more P2 cards mounted, use the Media Tool, select the P2 Drives, click All Projects and
click OK. All Master Clips from the P2 cards will appear in the Media Tool. Drag them
to a bin.
• When importing from the Panasonic P2 Store device, Media Tool must be used as well
on Macintosh.
➤ SD/HD Mixed sequences are not supported.
➤ 1:1 MXF media cannot be exported in both SD and HD projects. Transcode 1:1 MXF before
exporting.
➤ (Macintosh) Hotswapping P2 cards with the editor launched is currently not supported.
➤ Occasionally the File > Import P2 > Media command does not consolidate media to the
drives.
Workaround: Close and re-open the bin and then execute the command again.
➤ When you view a P2 clip that spans across multiple P2 cards in the timeline, you might be
surprised as to what you see and don't see due to the history of mounting P2 cards on your
current system and the P2 cards that are currently mounted. Be aware that even though
media is offline, or you are not able to view the P2 media in the Timeline, the media is not
lost. The media appears when the card containing it is mounted.
➤ If you have P2 clips on a P2 card and you display the clips in the Media tool, you might be
able to delete the audio and video .mxf files from the Media tool.
➤ If you remove a card from a slot in the P2 reader and do not put another card in the reader,
you must delete the P2 folder before inserting that same card in another slot.
