  • XDCAM HD 422 and Flash XDR

    Posted by Quentin Lareau on July 1, 2010 at 7:19 pm

    I just downloaded and installed the XDCAM transfer software and plugins for FC 6.0.6, and I’m not not seeing XDCAM HD 422 as a sequence setting. I’m trying to test the Flash XDR with my EX3, and I’ve recorded at 180mbps, and the Flash XDR manual says to set sequence settings to XDCAM HD 422, but unfortunately for some reason its not an option. I have successfully recorded and imported 35mbps 1080 24p through my SxS card reader with a sequence setting of XDCAM 1080 23.98 VBR. So my question is what am I missing? is there a specific download from Sony that I need for the XDCAM HD 422 preset? thx

    Make sure that the “show all” box is checked in Easy Setups or go to the menu Sequence>Settings>General and click on Compressor. See if the XDCAM HD presets are there.

    Why do you need a Sequence Easy Setup, when you can conform the sequence to whatever footage you want?

    Yeah, I don’t need an easy setups, I was just being paranoid because I was trying to follow exactly what was described in the Flash XDR’s manual. When I import the clips, the sequence settings change to match clip settings, and the compressor is selected as XDCAM HD 422. Thank you for your help

    So you recorded at 180 Mbps, what file format (wrapper) did you choose? MXF or Quicktime (.mov)????

    Good Luck

    So after reading this post you must have choose the Quicktime file format on the Flash XDR. These file are completely editable with Final Cut Pro.

    Good Luck
