Thank you for that link, Todd.  I skimmed the thread.  Oy.  This is majorly bad news.

On the advice on the forum, I reinstalled the Apple codecs, which similarly to the experience of others, fixed the problem for about five minutes, then the footage started getting rejected again.  

I zipped then trashed the DVCPROHDVideoOutput.component, and that worked for about five minutes, too.  Then… kablooey.

I'm stumped as to why the "now you see it; now you don't" nature of this bug.  Certainly that must be of some significance to your engineers, no?

Luckily for me (us), I can open the project and Save As CS6.  I just got a new project with a new (and potentially big) client today, and their footage is mostly DVCProHD and ProRes, and their template was AeCC.  

I would had been in deep jeopardy of losing this client and project if I didn't have CS6 already.  Woe are your new customers.

I guess I'll take my voice in the discussion to the Adobe forum, because it appears there are some Adobe people looking into it over there.

Thanks again,
Jim
