  Importing P2 as MXF

  Posted by Tony Luke on September 6, 2007 at 12:04 pm

  Hey all – I’m importing P2 cards today and was instructed that they have to be in MXF. I’m assuming this means it’s being edited on Avid systems, thus I won’t need to import through FCP, but rather mount the P2 cards and simply drag and drop the files to the hard drives. Can anyone verify this? Thanks so much!

  MXF is a much more interchangeable file format; basically every editor can edit the MXF files (either natively, or through using Raylight).

  So yes, just copy the CONTENTS and LASTCLIP.TXT folder — no need to go through any importing/quicktime conversion step.
