How to import/edit MXF files in Final Cut Pro 6/7?
Below are several disscussions about looking for the way importing MXF files to theFinal Cut Pro (6 or 7):
Q1: MXF files into FCP 6
I'm interested in the new Canon XF300 camera, but I'm still working on an Apple G5 with FCP 6.0.6. Is there an application, plug-in, etc. for the older FCP to take in MXF files? [G5, Mac OS X (10.4.11)]
Q2:importing .MXF files to Final Cut
What plug-in do I need to install so i can import and edit .MXF video files in Final Cut. The suggestion of doing Log and Transfer doesn't work (the .MXF files are gray out not allowing me to select it.) [Final Cut Pro 7, Mac OS X (10.5.]
Q3:Support for Canon MXF from xf100 in FCP?
How do I import .mxf files into Final Cut Pro? This is the latests and greatests software right? There must be a way. Help Please.
