  • Padlock icon on files from Sony PMW 300

    Help. Please. I cannot figure this out. I’m shooting UDF on the Sony PMW 300. When I access the files through Content Browser there is a padlock icon on every file. I don’t know where that lock originates from and how to remove it so that I can make clip lists and sub clips in Content Browser for import into Final Cut Pro X. Does anyone know the answer? Thanks a million…

    most likely you are looking at a UDF formatted card without the UDF driver installed. without it the card will mount and appear normally but it will be read-only and transfers will be very slow. https://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/sxsudfdriver

    Thanks, Ian. I finally found it the other night. Finally. Sony sure doesn’t make using their products very easy sometimes.
