June 5, 2015 at 4:45 pmThis is what one user reports:
Card Reader – In the FCPX import window I see a PRIVATE folder and a private folder. The PRIVATE folder has three files per clip – 1 is a movie icon, 2 is an audio icon, 3 is a still image icon. Importing just the movie file brings in the audio and video flawlessly. The private folder is empty, but viewing it in the Finder it is the top level directory of the card, and encloses all the AVCHD, XDROOT, etc. items.
SD slot on back of iMac – I just see the PRIVATE folder, and it only includes 2 files per clip – the movie file and the still image file – no audio file. But again, the movie file is all that is needed for import. In the Finder all I see is the PRIVATE folder which encloses the AVCHD, XDROOT, etc. – no separate private folder.
They report that BOTH work as is though.

June 5, 2015 at 4:57 pmYeah they do work as is, by moving the XDROOT over you get rid of all the extra little JPegs all the extra weird audio files etc, you just have all the clips in numerical order, as stated they do import with audio but one strange thing I noticed is that I recorded, ingested went back to record another clip and imported again, it was strange is it didn’t recognize the second file. Now again this is just testing and did this without moving the files to the same level as the private folder. I’m waiting for a response from Ian to see if they have anything to say at Sony?.
The variants you mention it just looks messy with all the extra files in the folder and could become confusing if having to CTL click individual files, just my preference to move across the XDROOT, be interested to hear if anyone else has tried it

You shouldn’t need to move anything.
