    new to final cut, my apologues

    codec not found you maybe using a compression type with the corresponding hardware card

    i took from sd card and saved to desktop

    also when playing the file through vlc the audio keeps cutting out

    codec reads MSADPCM

    Which Camera shot it the footage? It likely needs transcoding. Might try MPEG Streamclip. Free download, just google it.
