    Hello Helpful ones,
    I am the unfortunate recipient of some footage that was shot on a DCR-DVD108 camera. I was handed a pile of discs and wondered if these at all could be imported into FCP for editing purposes.I have the camera as well. Do I need to dub them to tape first and import. It has a USB port and it’s own sony software. The book says it saves as mpeg2. Like we needed another media format. Sheesh! Any suggestions or am I sunk?
    Thanks
    M

    Mary Ann,

    Try Streamclip and see if you can use it to transcode the MPEG files to a QT file.
