Panasonic P2 Card Reader Driver
So the problem here is that we shot a bunch of stuff this Sunday and when we tried to dump the footage, 4 of the drives (cards) wouldn't mount. We're using a Mac and the P2 store was formatted for Mac, but when it's plugged in to the desktop only 11 drives out of the 16 we downloaded show up on the desktop. The 11 that show up are all fine.
No problems, the footage looks great. Then when we went in through Apple's Disk Utility, we can see the all the drives (including the missing ones), but when we click on one of the missing drives and 'Mount Disk', nothing happens. Also, under the info for the missing drives, it says format: WindowsFat16, while all the ones that show up say: MS-DOS File System. We never changed anything while shooting, but for some reason there seems to be 2 different formats for some of the Drives/cards. How do we access those drives??? Have you tried to use the repair mode in your camera and see if that might help. The HD Log (and maybe P2 Log) app also has the repair capability.
I have no idea if this will help, but it's worth a try. Have you tried copying the four to another drive? Is that possible?

Hey John, Unfortunately, we rented the camera, so we don't have it anymore. Anyway, I'm not sure how having the camera would help, as we dumped the cards to the P2 Store and then formatted them and kept shooting.
So the footage that's currently on the cards is not the footage we're missing, anyway. Basically what happened was we shot with 2 4g cards. We kept dumping, formatting and re-using the cards throughout the day. We probably dumped to the P2 Store around 16 times, pretty much filling it up. After the shoot, we plugged the P2 Store in to a Mac Pro Intel desktop, running OSX. 11 'no name' drives mounted and we copied them over to the desktop. After going through the footage, we realized that we were missing a bunch of stuff.
We plugged in the P2 store again, but still only 11 drives mounted. When we opened up Mac's Disk Utility, we saw the 11 'No Name' drives, plus 4 additional drives (all around 3.5 gigs).
This is our missing footage. But when we highlighted any of the 4 drives and clicked 'Mount', nothing happens. We tried verifying the drives and repairing the drives with Disk Utility, but we get error messages about an unrecognizable format.
Under the disk info, it says the format is: Windowsfat16. We then made copies of the drives by creating new.dmg files with Disk Utility, but were unable to open the copies as well.
The odd thing is that the bad drives are from the middle of the shoot. We have footage from the very beginning of the day, and the end of the day.
So things started out fine and ended fine. But somewhere in the middle, something went wrong. We have since had to return the P2 Store and camera (rented), so all we have now are the copies of the drives. I have no idea how to get the footage out of the drives and am at my wit's end. We now have roughly 11 gigs of footage that I'm not sure I'll ever see again. I am SERIOUSLY disappointed with the P2 card system.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm not a tech guy when it comes to drives, etc., but after doing what Jan suggests, if you still have problems, maybe try to run a PC disk utility on the drives to see if that helps. I share your concern about P2 cards and storing them. What we do is off-load the P2 cards to a mirrored RAID connected to a laptop, and then play a bit of every clip from the drive before reformatting the P2 card. At the end of each day, we then copy the contents of the RAID to a second drive for added backup.
That drive eventually becomes the archive of the project.

Your footage will almost certainly mount on a Windows system. The P2 Store occasionally doesn't mount its volumes on a Mac, but it.always.
mounts them properly on Windows. So just change the P2 Store to Windows mode using the three-button press sequence, then plug it into a Win system and copy the volumes off.
No, but it'll salvage your footage. Get the most from your DVX camera. The DVX Book and DVX DVD are now available on ebay and at Amazon (http://www.fiftv.com/db).
