hey, i ran into the same problem a while ago…

I did the abov mentioned trick and like you said, i could get the icons but no imports….what I ended up doing was using a program called HD Log to export the files, which seemed to work for some reason….

side note…i was having a really hard time with this one clip even when i got all the other ones going, it kept quitting out right at the end of the export…long story short, the end of the clip must have been corrupted, i noticed it was freezing on a specific frame in the viewer, i had to trim the clip and export only the portion that was fine, and boom, that worked…

also, apparently Avid Express Pro HD for windows only can read the files without a lastclip file…

hope that helps…

i have tried to do them one at a time but it still doesn’t seem to be working….maybe it has something to do with the fact that i continuously recorded from one card to the other…

i did not delete any clips on the card…
there are 3 files in total …first card has one small clip, then the long one,…..second card just has one big one….the two biggies are the one continuous clip…

thanks for the tips, any more?

thanks for the replies…in regrads to getting FCP to recognize the data, i did the rename thing, and even found an article describing how to recreate the lastclip.txt file, which i did, and now i can get to the step in FCP where i can see the thumbnails, but when i go to import it tells me there is an error and my files mght be corrupt….

I have used the demo version of HD Log to open the files, the video/sound is all there, looks great, but i can not export a video file with the demo version,..

I did find your workflow, but about an hour too late!

any suggestions? is Avid Xpress Pro an option here? read somewhere it can read the raw mxf files…

please help! thanks so much
