Now this post is super old. But I’m having similar problems from time to time and would love to know your fix. Could you email me or post your solution?

Thanks,
Craig

I know this is months behind but I had the same problem. I talked to zaxwerks multiple times and once we figured out to turn off “render multiple frames simultaneously.” In fact, reading this entire post I was wondering if that was turned off. But that is the fix that worked for me, I’m wondering if that ended up working for you.

Thanks so much for answering.

I got on the phone with sorenson and then avid. My quicktime player wouldn’t play my reference files which led to a quicktime/avid problem. When talking to avid I found out that I have too new a version of quicktime. I got a hold of the older version that my avid is meant for and bam! the quicktime player works and it works in sorenson. Apparently Avid is very specific on it’s quicktime.

I do have safe mode enabled. And actually I can’t open my quicktime reference file in the movie player. Is there a quicktime component I need to download or is there something that came with sorenson that I didn’t install?

Thanks so much for the quick response, Gary!

I tried these things and still was having no luck. Even imported XDCAM footage wasn’t able to export. I got back on the phone with Sony and it turns out my deck’s firmware hasn’t been updated since it was bought about 2 or 3 years ago. I had to order a 128 MB SD card directly from Sony because Best Buy doesn’t sell anything smaller the 1 GB and the original firmware on the deck can’t handle any card bigger 128MB. I then downloaded the latest firmware update here: https://servicesplus.us.sony.biz/sony-software-model-PDWF70.aspx

I then followed the instructions that downloaded with it and bam! I can now export out of Final Cut Pro to my xdcam deck. Even the DVCPRO HD compressed footage exports fine.

Hopefully this will save someone else a couple day’s frustration.
