Logging questions at DVinfo.net

I am new to FCP - I learned editting on Avid but because I wanted to do 24F on the Canon, I made the switch (that and the increased HD capability of FCP).

So perhaps this is just a dumb newbie question. I did do a search of forums and came up empty.

I have had no problem capturing clips on the fly. However when I try to log, I set the in and out points - still no problem in the markers window of the log and capture window. I then hit "Log Clip" and the out point is given an extra 2 hours. So what was once a 20 second clip is now a 2 hour and 20 second clip.

Thoughts?

By the way, I am running Final Cut Pro 6.0 and on a PowerPC G5 dual 2.5 Ghz and am capturing through the computer's firewire card.

thanks

Actually, let me modify that and say that all four clips I tried to log all had the same exact out point 22:43:23:05
