Use log and transfer. You can bring in XDCAM natively through that tool. I don’t quite recall if you can transcode upon transfer. I haven’t used XDCAM in FCP in a little while. You may also need to download the XDCAM log and transfer from the Sony site. The log and transfer plugin.

DNxHD 220.
Very high quality codec, assuming they can convert to whatever specs they need from this file. You may want to spend a bit of time researching this stuff online.

What is your editing codec? What is the final codec/file format you’re going for?
If you’re just exporting for DNxHD…
1. Send to QT movie
2. Export as Quicktime movie or same as source (if you cut DNx) -
The new imacs will work wonderfully. I’m currently running it on an older model just fine.

Thank you Bob and Michael, I ask because I’ve been around them for a while and am about to start a job using them, but don’t have any real experience.

Issue resolved. Updated to v 5.0.3, and it worked. Annoyed me all of Monday but I’m glad its resolved. I will be at 5.5.1 soon enough…
-
Or, just open up the exported quicktime file and hit Command+i. It will tell you the codec in the little window that pops up.

Sounds like you’re doing fine, compositing isn’t exactly the fastest of all processes. Are you asking about keying in AE?
-
Are you trying to continue the edit at 24p? You could export it out as a self contained QT, change the frame rate settings in Compressor.

Hector or Michael,
I was unaware that Avid could link DNxHD 36 sequence back to AMA’d Prores files! How does Avid know to do that? When you transcode for offline your master clips point to MXF files. I’m just not grasping how you can tell your offline-edit media to relink from mxf to AMA Prores files for online. Please let me know if you can explain it, i’m very curious.
