When I ingest images with Photo Mechanic I sometimes get an error message that 1 image does not ingest, and it is always the last image on the card. A few times it's been the last 2 images that do not ingest, but most of the time it is just one. After I quit Photo Mechanic, I remount the CF card in question, and I am able to copy the "failed" image(s) from the CF card into the ingest folder manually using the Finder (image is not harmed). Another thing to note, when I look at the "failed"" image in the CF card in the Finder before un-mounting the CF card and quitting PM it shows that that last image is corrupted, and if I try to copy it then, the computer locks up.
The ingest error message seems to happen on various CF cards used on different cameras. Also it seems to do it on different computers, and ingesting onto the computer, or onto an external drive.
The error does not occur every time, but I estimates it happens about 25% to 50% of the time. I ingested 7 cards from my most recent shoot, and the error occurred on 3 of the 7 cards.
What is causing this problem?
See the image of the error message in the Ingest Tasks window, and my settings in the image of the Ingest window.
Bodies: Nikon D700, D300 and at times various Canons used by assistant photographers.
Cards: Lexar, SandDisk, Lexington
Ingesting via PhotoMechanic 4.6.6
Computers: MacBook Pro (Leopard), iMac 27" (Lion)
Thanks, for any assistance.
