I will just be happy if they didn’t nix multiclip editing. Without it, I won’t be using FCPX (and I REALLY want to).

I have had similar problems. I use the same solution (only with a Kona LHe) for interlaced material, but for progressive I find I have more luck with Adobe Media Encoder. However, that program is far from perfect and I came here hoping to find a better software solution. There has to be something.

Try re-calibrating your screen using the Mac OS calibration tool. That did it for me.

Nevermind…I figured it out 🙂 The latest update must have messed with my color profile gamma settings. After re-calibrating the monitor, FCP adjusted to match. Cheers!

I am having the exact same issue, except my audio files are 44.1k 24 bit. No matter what I try with sequence presets, the duration is always incorrect when imported into FCP. Soundtrack Pro reads the file correctly, as does the Mac OS. Any help would be appreciated.

I’m having the same issue, and neither of the previously mentioned remedies worked for me. I can’t wait until Apple allows BD authoring in DVDSP…Encore is driving me nuts with how buggy it is 🙁

Good to know. I typically edit native xdcam, as I’m typically working with 3 clips at a time in multiclip editing, and transcoding 3 2+ hour clips is a waste of time and drive space. I’ve never had much of a problem with this workflow, but I have noticed that exporting finished movie files can take exceedingly long.

I think I figured it out. It turns out that the horizontal phase on the EX-3 defaults to a 90 degree shift, which was apparently causing the problem. By resetting it to 0 degrees, the PSF output lines up perfectly. Apparently what was happening was that the H-phase was causing the cadence to be off by one frame, so instead of aa bb aa etc. it was outputting ab ba ab. Hope that fixes it for ya 🙂

I have actually experienced a strange thing before with XDCAM Transfer, where a small section of the wrapped file had a couple of frames of digital dropout. The strange part is that when I went back to the original BPAV, the footage was clean at the same location, and I was able to re-wrap a small section of the footage and patch it into my timeline seamlessly. As a result I never get rid of my BPAV folder until my project is finished.
Another thing Clip Browser is useful for is if you are shooting long events that span multiple cards. Clip Browser will seam the cards back together into a single video clip. I’m not sure if XDCAM Transfer does this.

Yep, as Don said the only difference between 16:9 anamorphic and 4:3 video is a flag that indicates that the footage should be displayed with an anamorphic pixel aspect ratio. Just set it to “squeeze” and flag it anamorphic in FCP (or whatever NLE you’re using) if needed.
