Native support for EX-1?

using the browser rewraps them to mp4. That doesn’t resize them to 1440, AFAIK, but then I am an EX1 noob…..

This is from the white paper put out by Sony Creative:

1. Shoot your video with your XDCAM EX camera.

2. Transfer your clips from your camera to your computer.

a. Install the SxS device driver and XDCAM EX Clip Browsing Software.

b. Connect your camera (or card reader) to your computer with a USB cable.

c. Your camera will prompt you to “Connect USB Now?” Choose Execute.

d. In the Clip Browsing Software window, select the clips you want to transfer to your computer.

e. From the File menu, choose Export, and then choose MXF from the submenu.

f. In the Export to MXF dialog, choose the folder and file name you want to use to save your clips.

g. Click Start. The clips are converted to MXF format and copied to your computer.

3. Drag your captured clips from the Explorer or Project Media window to the timeline to create events.

4. Edit your project as needed.

5. Render your project for your destination format.

So I think the explorer only works with .mxf files. But I’d love to see the documentation on using the xdcam explorer to rewrap the mp4’s if you’ve seen it somewhere.

Thanks for the post.
