  • EX1 MXF export for Vegas issue

    Posted by David Shirey on April 1, 2008 at 7:41 pm

    I crossposted this with the Cinealta forum too regarding Sony’s Clipbrowser that came with the PMW-EX1:

    I transferred all files to an internal ntfs drive, and when I go to Export>MXF in the clip browser and choose a name to export, it gives me an error that “Conversion error ocurred. Conversion aborted.” Then “Condition Failure- Non Real Time Metadata XML validation- Details: Error in non-real time metadata content (invalid string) @Datatypes/AudioPortType.h:94” There’s only one format, MXF, so I’m not sure what I’ve got set wrong. Is there any other software not included with the clip browser CD that I need to install? I have Vegas 8 and am looking to import into that once the mxf files are made. Files are at 1440×1080 @59.94i.

    I thought the Vegas people here might be able to help. If for any reason I can’t get the clipbrowser to export MXF files, are there any alternatives for getting the mp4 files from the SxS cards into Vegas 8.0b? Any other software I might need to install? I upgraded to the latest quicktime but that didn’t help.

    You need to update the clipbrowser from the one that came with the camera.

    That’s all you’ll need to do, update.

    Thanks, that fixed it. Can’t believe I thought to upgrade everything except the ClipBrowser itself. Didn’t occur to me it wouldn’t convert MXF straight out of the box.
