  • Can you batch export using the Sony XDCAM Tool in FCP?

    Posted by Brendan Linzi on August 31, 2009 at 11:39 pm

    I have over 300 videos that have to be archived to onto XDCAM discs. In order to do that, I have to bring the ProRes MOV files into FCP and put them into sequences, because XDCAM doesn’t like stereo audio, only dual mono.

    Anyway, now I have a whole bunch of sequences to convert to MXF. The only way to do that is Export > Sony XDCAM….

    There’s no option to batch export, so I have to do it one at a time. WTH? I thought I might be overlooking something, but none of the other editors I work with have ever batch exported MXFs before.

    Does anyone know of a solution for this? I’ve never encountered an export tool that doesn’t allow you to select multiple files.

    Please Help!

    Did you ever get this figured out? I just started a project in FCP and need to output several segements to XDCam.
