    Hi all,
    I need to conform every 720 50p weddings clips (300/400) to 25p to have nice slomo
    I know Cinema Tools don’t import MXF converted files in XD CAM Browser
    I think to convert to Prores
    Do you have a workflow?
    My editing software is Avid Media Composer 6

    Thanks in advance,
    Maurizio

    If you rewrap to .mov using XDCAM Transfer or Content Browser, Cinema Tools will take the .movs. You do not need to go to ProRes.

    Thanks Ian,
    I have another question
    When I convert in XD CAM Browser to .mov I have an .xml file for every clip
    It’s possible to have only the .mov file?

    Thanks,
    Maurizio

    I have an old version of XD CAM Browser (1.3)
    Under “Preferences” and “FCP” tab I can see only
    Media Name
    Title 1
    Clip List Name (Subclip)
    What can I do?

    Upgrade to Content Browser. The UI and workflow are more or less the same. (XDCAM Browser was rolled into Content Browser when we opened the application up to XAVC and AVCHD.)

    Is your system will support v 1.1 you can download and install for free. If you require v2 there is a 20.00 software key required.

    I can’t because I need to stay with Mac OSX 10.6.8 to have Cinema Tools
    and Content Browser need another version
    There are some problems to import directly the .mov files in Cinema Tools (temporal removal)
    If I convert the same .mov files to ProRes I have no problems in Cinema Tools

    Thanks again,
    Maurizio
