I have never captured a tape with FCP X.
To the best of my knowledge there is no way of turning this Meta Data detection off inside FCP X.
It will automatically break up material depending on when it was shot whilst capturing!
In the Events Library if I switch to the List view I can see the time code.
I can then Click where start is written in the column above the time code to sort by, well, start timecode!
So theoretically I could sort the column and drag every thing into the timeline and it should work!
I could imagine that even if you were not missing frames you would still hear sound cuts!?!
FCP Express should theoretically work on Mountain Lion although I have not tried this either!
What was the problem with FCP Express?
