Working with .MXF files ?
Hi, one of our client has provided huge sets of MXF files to us and we need to make the video file out of it.
When we try to open the files on VLC, they dont play.
What player can play the MXF files ?
And when we take the MXF files to premiere pro cs6 CC , it shows some red green sets of lines on the video overplay.
Whats that ?And the audio shows 4-5 channels too ?
How to remove the overlay lines ?

Your client has to tell you what the MXF files came from. MXF is not a “format” as much as it is a wrapper, which can contain any number of layers and codecs, which you have to know to make it work. Here’s an article on it – read the “MXF in Use” section to see the numerous possibilities and problems associated with the file:

It sounds as if Ingex might be able to help you out, but your client should be able to tell you whether the MXF they’ve given you came from a camera, an NLE, or whatever, and what’s inside it:

It came from a Panasonic camera,
P2_CAM folders.
We simply want to use the video files into a wedding video, which we are doing.
