  • “Incomplete” clips won’t import in XDCAM

    Posted by Dale Larsen on February 20, 2008 at 6:23 pm

    I have just started using a EX-1 & the XDCAM transfer software.
    I can’t import clips that are “incomplete” because they are on different cards (or folders since I had to dump several cards to a folder during a long shoot)

    XDCAM does not want to import them. I can play them in XDCAM transfer but not import.

    I also have some files with the extension SMI instead of mp4.

    no idea how or where these different extensions come from.
    HELP!
    need advise please

    Dale,

    Please see my workflow suggestions in response to your recent post in the Sony CineAlta – XDCAM forum.

    For the record.
    the secret of importing incomplete clips, is to check the “import” box in the lower right corner of the XDCAM browser.

    these boxes get “unchecked” when an incomplete clip is highlighted.

    Once checked, you are able to import them.

    search the help section for “incomplete”
