xdcam transfer / codec crash

[Martin Kleinert]

Hi,

as Greg says its not a DEMO thing.
I’ve now tried all alternatives.

I checked the quicktime bin and as you said,
the “AppleHDVCodec.component” is missing.
I dont know why… if it’s normally in the FCP installation package.

Can I order/download that component from somewhere additionally?

Cheers Martin

Hi Martin,

It’s installed with FC Studio and can’t be ordered as a separate component or an individual download from Apple.

Maybe Craig knows of a good way to re-install FCP 6 from your FC Studio 2 DVD’s correctly without too much hassle…..

Cheers,
Greg

Hi

I can see that its been awhile since you discussed this issue.

I have a problem

I have stupidly changed the names of my BPAV…. so Premiere Pro CS6 will not accept it..

Is calibrated the thing that will solve my problem…if it is which bundle is preferable???

Hi Lars,

If you’re trying to import XDCAM EX MP4 files into PPro CS6 then we don’t have software for that workflow.

You should be able to just drag-n-drop the raw XDCAM EX MP4 files into your PPro CS6 Bin as PPro CS6 should be able to natively read XDCAM EX MP4 files that aren’t in the proper BPAV folder structure.

Or you can download and install Sony’s XDCAM Content Browser and it can rebuild the BPAV structure of XDCAM EX MP4 files.

I hope that helps!

Cheers

Hi Greg

Thx for your fast reply..

Ive tried the content browser, but got the message “Failed to import the clip” – I got their rightcliking and choosing import – choosing the clip and click start…

I can see the clips in vlc player – im thinking of doing some screen recording from VLC (i dont know how)

Do you have any lastminute firstaid help you can provide me with???

Hi,

If both PProCS6 and Content Browser 2.0.1 (or even earlier versions of Content Browser) can’t import the XDCAM EX MP4 files then chances are that the XDCAM EX MP4 files are slightly damaged (internally) as both those applications should import orphaned XDCAM EX MP4 files without any problems.

I think VLC can play damaged files alot better as it can skip over damaged areas.

I hope that helps!

Hi Greg

Thx for trying to help….but I gotta throw in the towel…

I gotta find a screenrecording program that can screen record in HD in VLC and with sound.

Thx again

If you renamed your folders you can recover the files easily–

Transfer can read a folder with just the .mp4s as an archive. copy/move your .mp4s to a new folder, –>Add Source.

To properly rebuild the BPAVs with new metadata, use Browser to manually import the files to a new location (I have documented this in several threads; please do a search if you run into issues..)

Hi Ian

Thx for your reply.

The issues is that when I imported from the cam – I renamed the BPAV… – But what you say is that I should copy the mp4 to a new folder – then you write add source (XDcam browser?)
