That's what it felt like when I was waiting for the hour's worth of footage I shot this morning to be uploaded.  It made the FCP app run so slow when it was uploaded that it kept on pausing, but that's nothing to do with the actual footage, just how FCP plays back the footage.  At the end of the lesson, I tried to transfer the new edit of the file to my portable harddrive, but it came up with an error message, this is what it read:

I researched the error code, apparently its to do with the lack of space on a portable harddrive with the 'fat32' format.  My portable harddrive had 40GB on it, the folder that had my film project in that I wanted to transfer was only 33GB.  I haven't the faintest idea why the error code came up - there shouldn't be an error! I was going to ask Ashley, but he wasn't in today, so I'll ask him on Wednesday.
