  ingest growing files from Sony disk recorder

  Hi everyone,

  I wonder if anybody has done any ingesting of growing files
  from a Sony disk recorder (DSR-DR1000AP). This could either be
  via re-wrapping the file or accessing the disk recorders
  hardware from within FCP.
  Important is that the file has not got a fixed file size with
  an in/out, it’s a live recorded track that grows over time
  and should be accessed as such within FCP. The problem I have
  is that we use FileZilla (connected via Ethernet) which gets
  the file into the computer. From there you can import the file
  in FCP, once you load it into the player window it stops updating
  itself.

  A theory could be that this is a DV stream, which does not have
  a header that tells the software to keep the file growing over
  time.
  My question: is there any re-wrapping software that can deal with
  growing file sizes? I heard about MovieRecorder from Softron and
  Quick Time reference files and was wondering, if anybody has dealt
  with it.

  Thanks for your time. Cheers

  Frank
