Question: How to import p2 .mxf files from Panasonic AG-HPX371E to FCP 6 for editing?

I filmed with two Panasonic AG-HPX371E camera’s movies earlier this week. Everything was filmed on P2 cards in 1080-50i (AVC I 50/50i). The program itself was a single shot of just over 65 minutes. On the P2 card it was broke down in separate files, six files of 10 minutes and 9 seconds (4,27 Gb) and one file with the final couple of minutes (about 1 Gb). How can import these files into FCP 6 for editing?

Answer: Transcode Panasonic AG-HPX371E P2 MXF to FCP 6 compatible codec.

I know Apple ProRes is the best codec for FCP, so you need to convert your Panasonic AG-HPX371E .mxf files for working in Final Cut Pro. I just find a program called Pavtube MXF Converter for Mac to convert your Panasonic AG-HPX371E P2 MXF files to Apple ProRes 422 format. Brilliant! You can give a try.

After conversion, once the format conversion is done, open up Final Cut Pro, choose “File > Import > Files…” to select and load the generated ProRes 422 MOV files to FCP for editing use.

Of course, if you want to import MXF Footage to Final Cut Pro directly from a P2 card, using a P2 card reader, the PCMCIA CardBus slot in your laptop, or the HVX200 camera itself. You can also import footage from a P2 card image that was offloaded to a hard drive. Final Cut Pro sees the P2 card as a volume and also sees the path to the card. The process for importing P2 clips is similar to standard importing, with some important differences. For example, importing P2 footage actually copies the media from the P2 card into your Capture Scratch folder and places a QuickTime wrapper around it to edit in Final Cut Pro. The following article link detailed shows how it works: http://www.pavtube.com/guide/importing-p2-footage-into-fcp-from-p2-card.html

Notes:

1. When converting MXF footage using Final Cut Pro oriented format templates(e.g. Apple ProRes), please ensure that your computer has Final Cut Pro installed, otherwise the converted files will have audio only without image.

2. If you are using FCP X, please make sure you have installed ProApps QuickTime Codecs, or you may get files with sound only without video. The FCP X does not install the ProApps QuickTime Codecs automatically, so you need download and install the codec manually from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1396.

Continue reading »]]> Summary: The video from Panasonic AG-HPX250/HPX255 P2 card is in MXF format, and it will not be supported by FCP X. It means that you will not import P2 to Final Cut Pro X. So you will need a P2 MXF converter for Mac, transcoding P2 MXF to ProRes 422 so that it will be 100% compatible with Final Cut Pro X on Mac Mountain Lion 10.8.

Panasonic AG-HPX250 Introduce

Panasonic is providing a free upgrade to their AG-HPX250, and introduced the new AG-HPX255 handheld and the AG-HXP600 should-mount HD cameras. All the units feature 4:2:2 AVC-Intra recording to P2 cards, full HD 1920 x 1080, multiple frame rates and more.

The HPX255 is a handheld professional P2 HD camera that works with Panasonic’s Paint Box remote control, the AG-EC4. It features three 1/3-inch 2.2 MP (megapixel) 3-MOS sensors, offering the full HD resolution. It weighs just 5.5 pounds, and the fixed high definition lens gets 22x zoom. The HPX255 also shoots in the 10-bit, 4:2:2 AVC-Intra codec.

The free Panasonic AG-HPX250 upgrade, which allows for “focus-in-red”, making it easier to get critical focus, and a one-push auto focus feature known as “Turbo One”. You can visit Panasonic’s site for the free upgrade.

How to import Panasonic AG-HPX250 P2 MXF files to Final Cut Pro X without rendering on Mac?

For most video fans, their favorite is to edit the videos and share to YouTube or other websites. And sometimes they just share the videos with families or friends instead of uploading to the web. No matter where to share, the basic tool needed is a Video Editor, which will help to get better video effects. And the common but powerful video editors included iMovie, Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Pro X, Final Cut Express and so on. As now Mac is owned by most families, video editors designed by Apple have been much more acceptable.

Final Cut Pro X was issued in June 2011. And it has replaced Final Cut Express since then. Apple has announced its functions as: Revolutionary video editing, Powerful media organization and Incredible performance. This software, actually, is a little difficult to manage totally. But for most people, getting to know how to edit the videos is enough. Just like me: I can only do basic edit to my videos, but the effects are really great. After that, I usually share the videos to YouTube.

The only problem for Final Cut Pro X and P2-card-user is the video format. You know, Panasonic P2 card stores videos in MXF format. But to FCP X, Apple ProRes 422 is the best format to read. If not, FCP X will refuse reading the files or spending much time on the process of Rendering. And the simple solution is to Convert P2 MXF to Apple ProRes codec. Here comes the most powerful video conversion tool, which is Pavtube MXF Converter for Mac.
This software can deal with MXF files perfectly. It supports basic edit for the files, such as merge, split or trim. Of course, its main function is to transcode the P2 MXF files to other video formats, such as Apple ProRes, Apple InterMediate Codec(AIC), MOV, Mp4, AVI and so on. And the following Steps will show how it works.

1. Download Pavtube P2 MXF to MOV Converter for Mac. The professional Mac P2 MXF converter can help you convert Panasonic P2 MXF files to common formats, such as Apple ProRes, MOV, MP4, AVI, MKV etc.

                  $29

2. Install and launch the professional P2 Card Mac Converter, import Panasonic HPX255/HPX250 P2 MXF videos to the P2 MXF to MOV converter for Mac.

Click “Format” bar to choose the best video format for output. You are recommended to choose “Final Cut Pro -> Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as output format for editing Panasonic HPX255/HPX250 P2 MXF footage on FCP X.

3. You can click “settings” button to adjust the output video’s parameters, such as resolution, bitrate, etc.

4.Edit function is easy and useful, you can trim, crop, or add watermark to the video.

5.Click “Convert” button to start encode Panasonic HPX255/HPX250 P2 MXF to Apple ProRes for FCP X.

Notes:

1. When converting MXF footage using Final Cut Pro oriented format templates(e.g. Apple ProRes), please ensure that your computer has Final Cut Pro installed, otherwise the converted files will have audio only without image.

2. If you are using FCP X, please make sure you have installed ProApps QuickTime Codecs, or you may get files with sound only without video. The FCP X does not install the ProApps QuickTime Codecs automatically, so you need download and install the codec manually from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1396.

All folders and single files are supported, after conversion you can import converted MOV files to FCP X without rendering, it can deal with all the MXF files, such as Panasonic P2 series, Canon XF series, Sony XDCAM series, etc.

Don’t worry about quality of the new videos output. If you have ever tested this software or compared with other converters, you will find that MXF Converter for Mac supply high quality for new videos, even the same as your original ones. And the process costs much shorter time than any other such converter. In another word: P2 MXF Converter for Mac will run in fast speed, and in high quality.

XDCAM, introduced by Sony in 2003, has four different products lines – the XDCAM SD, XDCAM HD, XDCAM EX and XDCAM HD422, which differ in encoder, frame size, container and recording media. Designed for heavy-duty field acquisition, Sony XDCAM camcorders provide the excellent picture quality, operability and reliability. Besides that, Sony XDCAM camcorders offer a wide range of innovative features that maximize the benefits of nonlinear disc media.

Sony XDCAM camcorders usually record MXF and MP4 format video, and it usually use MPEG2 codec, this codec is not good for editing in FCP X, and you will encounter importing and codec problems when you try to import Sony XDCAM footage to Final Cut Pro X.

Final Cut Pro X

FCP X (Final Cut Pro X) is the most popular video editing software on Mac, it can’t surpport Sony XDCAM HD High-Definition Camcorders PDW-F800, PDW-700, PDW-F355L etc. MXF files, you need a Sony XDCAM to FCP X Converter for Mac to help you convert/transcode Sony XDCAM MXF/MP4 files to FCP X (included FCP, FCP 6/7) compatible format Apple ProRes 422 MOV for editing on Mac.

Import Sony XDCAM media to FCP X issues

Q1. I just downloaded the trial version FinalCut X. I’ve tried to imort video both with XDCam browser, and straight from an external hard drive and gotten the same blank geen screen results. I really think I can work with this software if I could just find out what I am missing. Updated eveything when I downloaded the software. Can someone please help?

Q2. Hi I’m a TV cameraman and I need to export my edited job from FCP X back to my sony XDCAM F800 camera. I could do this on FCP 6 and 7 back it doesn’t seem to work on X does anybody how to do this or any plugins so I can export back to XDCAM.

Q3. How do I import PDW F800 .mxf files (from my hard drive) into Final Cut Pro? I have tried log & transfer, it doesn’t seem to work. Tried XDCAM transfer tool, doesn’t work either. Any solutions?

Q4. I’d like to import and edit .mxf video files in Final Cut Pro, what plug-in do I need to install? Log and Transfer doesn’t work because .mxf files are gray out not allowing me to select it.

Q5: I’ve been given some MXF files that were made by a Sony XDCAM camera. How do i import those files to FCP? I read a bit and I concluded to Calibrated. Is there another way, maybe a freeware utility?

As far as I know, FCP X best supported video format is “Apple ProRes 422 codec MOV format”, so the best way to solve Sony XDCAM importing and codec problem is to convert Sony XDCAM media footage to ProRes for editing in Final Cut Pro X (or FCP, FCP 6/7).

Continue reading »]]> Vendor: Canon

Models: EOS 5D Mark II, new 5D Mk III, EOS 1D, EOS 7D, 60D, 550D(Rebel T2i), 600D(Rebel T3i), 650D(Rebel T4i), etc.

For Cinema EOS C300, see Pavtube Canon Column

Compatible: Recent high-end IXUS cameras

Status: Routinely repaired.

Canon EOS 5D Mark II and EOS 7D are digital single-lens reflex cameras with notable video capabilities.

The first DSLR to feature 1080p video recording, the EOS 5D Mark II has gained traction among indie film makers, that find the shallow depth of field and low-light recording to give a remarkable “film look”.

Canon EOS 5D and 7D cameras can record at 1920x1080p resolution up to 30 frames per second, and 1280x720p up to 60 fps.

Canon Cameras FAQ: 

 

Q1: Canon 7d MOV and ProRes codec.

I have captured files from Canon 7d ( h264), these are captured at 720p 50fps;

My deliverable is 720p 25fps, I normally take my 50fps file and open with CineTools and conform to 25 fps – effectively making the file slow motion.

I used a video tool to convert 7D .mov footages to Prores. I convert these to ProRes and they play in quicktime correctly- the information window shows them to be ProRes codec. But when I tried to conform them, it puts all files in “Skipped” folder.

I am using Final Cut Pro studio.

I cannot see how to do so that CineTools will recognise the file, any ideas ?
Matt.

A: If Cinema Tools is unable to complete the conform process for a clip, that clip is moved into a Cinema Tools–created subfolder named Skipped.

The following are three reasons why clips can not be conformed:

1. a clip is not processed if it doesn’t contain a video track

2. the frame rate is not supported,

3. no codec is found for the video track.

The video plays well in QT, so the video has nice video and audio track. I do not test your video, so I am not sure which one is the right reason. Maybe the parameters or codec of converted prores videos do not conform to Cinema tools conformable ones. Try another video converting tool to get another prores videos. The program I recommend is named Pavtube Mac Canon MOV Converter which I used to convert 5D Mark II videos. The output ProRes videos WERE successfully conformed without any problem. Download its free trial version to test if it works for you.

 

Q2: EOS 5D MARK II, Best Codec, 720p or 1080p

Hello all

I am beginning to use my 5D Mark II not only for pictures but also for movies. I have gone and purchased a copy of FCP 7.

Now I have a question, since the file that comes out of the camera is not very good for editing, which codec should I use to convert it?

Is it a good idea to stay in 720p instead of trying to go up to 1080p?

Is 1080p feasible in FCE as I only see 1080i?

Thanks for the help

A: This camera shoots at 30fps if I read the information correctly. This is not a standard video frame rate. The material needs to be converted to QuickTime using the Apple Intermediate Codec at 29.97fps. You can use Pavtube HD Video Converter for Mac to do this.

BTW, it’s been discussed a lot of the forum. I’m sure you can find a lot about it with a forum search.

 

Q3: Burn Canon MOV footages into DVD directly without any conversion

Hi guys,

I recorded some family videos in my new Canon EOS 650D. Now, I want to burn my homemade video onto a DVD so I can play it on a DVD player at a reception.  I can’t figure out how to do this, but I assume it is possible. I have read plenty articles which tell me to convert Canon footages first and then burn them into DVD. This is too complicated for me. I want to get an easy solution. Can you help?

Thanks, Melanie

A: Well, in the word of video converting there are so many ways to go about this because so many video converting tool can help you encode recorded MOV videos. After conversion, a DVD burning tool is needed for DVD burning. BUT I think you will get lost in this way.

An easy solution is to get a DVD authoring software which supports Canon Long-GOP MOV videos loading. I have ever purchased program from Pavtube which supports my canon 5D ii MOV videos perfectly. Yesterday, I received a newsletter from Pavtube to tell me that its newly released DVD Creator is able to burn Canon MOV videos to DVD directly without any conversion. I haven’t tested it. Go ahead to download and test if it is helpful.

 

Q4: How to compress Canon C300 mxf files to FCP X?

We are trying convert MXF files produced with a Canon C300 camera, into an Uncompressed video file that can be edited in FCP X. I tested one freeware. However, the resulting .mov (Apple ProRes 422) file is not the quality I’m looking for. I want a 1 to 1 copy of the orignial not a compressed output. And it seems that I lose my Timecode stamp in the process.

Is there anyway to accomplish this result? And what tool should I use?

Ammon Wiese

A: As far as I know, few program provides Apple Prores video output. And I have tested one program named clipwrap for my Panasonic TM700 videos. For some reason, the video and audio of output files are not sync. And this program only works in AVCHD and HDV videos.

The program I chose finally is Pavtube HD Video Converter for Mac. This program works in both 1080p MTS videos from my Panasonic TM700 and MXF videos from Canon C300. Actually, I did not notice any difference between output file and original files.

As for the timecode issue you mentioned, yes, this program performs well in keeping its timecode stamp. This is the first MXF tool which achieves this task, so far.

Hope these helps.  

 

Q5: Burning Cannon HF R11 MTS to a DVD with a free DVD burning software

Hi,

I downloaded a freeware and converted my movie from my new Cannon Vixia HF R11 Camcorder to a *.VOB format, then I burned a DVD with a free DVD burning software so I can watch on my HD TV. Everything looked great except the sound was not really synced with the picture, there was about a 2 second delay. Did I do something wrong?

A: Why didn’t burn original Canon MTS footages directly into blank DVD? That is to say, without converting or burning software. In my experience, video conversion always brings quality drop. So a DVD Creator natively supports MTS videos will give you great help. Here a freeware named Pavtube Free DVD Creator is recommended. This program is totally free while it is fully functional. I have downloaded it from pavtube.com to author my TIVO recordings and Panasonic MTS videos. It gave me quality DVD burning. Moreover, it allows me to adjust the DVD menu template, menu text, display aspect ratio and background for the DVD menu. Take your time because you have to pay for it once its giveaway is expired.

 

Q6: Converting Canon T4i on Mac?

Q: My Canon T4i is somewhat new. I just started using the video clips for my sons soccer.  I use smugmug and this is what I want to ultimately upload them to.  My son would also like to email a few.  But, the T4i format is not converting or allowing me to do much of anything with. I can export a clip from the memory card to my Mac- to Aperture- to desktop and then slowly load them to smugmug.  But, there has to be an easier way. Thank you for your time and attention.

Carolyn

A: I looked around and found that it looks like smugmug re-compresses the video. So the video quality is not good enough. Then I found a Canon T4i MOV Video Converter which helps to convert MOV video to Smugmug preferred AVI videos. In the process of converting, I set output video bitrate the same with bitrate of original MOV video, and the output videos show really high quality. The program I use is Pavtube HD Video Converter. Please check if it is helpful for you.
