I have successfully converted 7 days worth of footage, shot with a Canon C300. Your software is the only one I have been able to find that can fetch the individual MXF files out of their subfolders as a batch.”
Just like the users above, many people who own a high-end camera or camcorder may want to import the HD footages to Final Cut Pro for editing natively.
