That must be the shortest answer possible. Apart from ‘no’ of course, but I would not have liked that very much 🙂
Thanks,

I experience exactly the same thing.
MacPro 1,1 (yes, it’s time for an upgrade), 12 Gb RAM, 4 left for other apps (even though AE is the only one running at the moment), multiprocessing turned off.
Every mouse click means waiting half a second or I’ll move whatever I just clicked.
But… This only happens when using the mouse. With my Wacom a click is simply a click as it’s supposed to be. (problem solved? No. My Wacom is set to work only on the main screen while my timeline sits on the left screen. Spreading the Wacom to both screens will make the Wacom useless for precision paint jobs).
First I thought is was my slow machine, but since the Wacom works OK there must be something else… -
Hi Dave,
Yes, I’m aware of the fact that AE is not very happy with any MPEG or other interframe compression files. The fact that my files show up a solid green however, is IMHO not to do with this problem.
The reason I wanted the XDCAM files to import directly into AE is that I assumed these files are 10 bit YUV. When I imported them into Final Cut and tried to export them to another file format there were only 8-bit fileformats available. Whether this means the XDCAM EX is 8-bit to begin with is something I could not figure out or find on the Sony website.
I now converted the files to Apple Pro-res. But everything is shot against a white background with a very subtle gradient making any color correction in AE result in banding. If the XDCAM material is 8-bit there is of course nothing to be gained, but if it is indeed 10bit YUV the results could be much better I think…Regards,
Arjen

Dear Todd,
Yes, that is exactly what I’m trying to import. The file directory is as follows:
BPAV->CLPR->Filename.mp4,Filename.SMI.FilenameI01.PPN,FilenameM01.XML,FilenameR01.BIM.
Like I said, AE does import the files but they show up as solid green.Regards,
Arjen
