  • Write back clips to PDW-U1 from the Mac!!! (oh, and XDCAM Transfer 2.9.0)

    Just found this:

    https://www.sony.co.uk/biz/view/ShowSiteSection.action?sectiontype=BC%20Tools%20XDCAM

    Apparently you need both of the two new packages:

    PDW-U1 Utility Software Version 2.1.0
    PDW-U1 : Firmware Package V2.205 + U1 Utility V2.1.0 (Windows + Mac)

    “(3) U1 Utility V2.1.0 has been released for the Mac to provide similar functionality as the Windows version. This s/w enables the user to write MXF files from the Mac back to disc. This s/w should only be installed on Intel-based Macs running OS X Leopard 10.5.6 or higher.”

    Final Cut Pro/XDCAM Transfer V2.9.0
    PDZK-P1 : XDCAM Transfer Package V2.9.0 + FAM Driver V2.2.0 (Mac)

    “NEW FEATURE Writing to the CLIP folder in PDW-U1 is now supported (this feature only applies to Intel-based Macs running OS X Leopard 10.5.6 or higher).”

    (XDCAM Transfer is still happy both on PowerPC and with Tiger though; it’s only this feature that needs Intel/Leopard.)
