    Posted by Mandla Bolekaja on January 29, 2013 at 12:03 am

    I’m getting this message during my workflow of using Log and Transfer for P2 files.
    Can anyone help me correct this issue?

    “.tempdiroNYPFmNg” contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media final cut pro.

    You need to choose the ROOT level folder that contains your tapeless media. Either the card itself, or the folder that contains the full card backup. Don’t go digging inside…choose the top level.

    Here’s the full workflow for tapeless. I hope you backed up everything right.

    I am having the same problem. I am using the top of the file directory but I get the same message. Short of buying Clipwrap….anything else to try? I’m trying to import an AVCHD card from my Canon XA-10. I usually dont have problems
