    Hi Ian..

    The Sony Micro site,(which says up dated July 2012).. doesnt have the newest SXS UDF driver for mac. although its been out for a while and I down loaded it from another Sony site you posted a link to..

    Is there a Sony site that is regularly updated to have all the latest XDCAM software.. ..7 months is a while.

    Thanks

    the up to date UDF driver is on the Sony Creative Software site:

    https://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/sxsudfdriver

    The latest device driver is on the pro media site:

    https://pro.sony.com/bbsc/ssr/mkt-recmedia/resource.downloads.bbsccms-assets-mkt-recmedia-downloads-upgrades.shtml

    I know this is wonky; we are in the process of getting everything centralized on/redirected from the main XDCAM site but are a bit behind due to NAB prep and other factors

    Hi Ian

    Sorry didnt mean the tone of my original post to be a criticism at all.And you have personally helped me and alot of others on this forum..
    Actually Im surprised that you guys are even in charge of having to do it.. I thought there would be someone /another dept. who would be in charge of up dating the software sites..!!!
    Im not using the device driver anymore as new computer doesnt have exp card slot.. got the USB3 card reader but still need the UDF driver ..
    I can just update over the previous UDF driver,rather than having to take out the old one.cant I.. ?

    Thanks again

    No worries, Robin– if anything I share the frustration over the whole multiple-software-sites thing. It’s only temporary until we get all the redirects worked out. Thanks for hanging in there.

    Ok great thanks.. Im pretty sure you already told me.. but its safe to just up date UDF driver over the old one isnt it.. or better to take it out of extensions first anyway..

    Thanks again

    you can install without removing the old one, no inherent risk
