Do you use Media 100 i or HD/sw? I wrote some multicam functionality for HD, but unfortunately it relies on some functions that were not available in Media 100 i. If you

6 Seats of FibreJet running with Media 100 HD, OSX10.4.4, dual2GB FibreChannel Atto boards, ~10TB drivespace on 2 RAID systems, from heavily compressed SD footage up to 1080/25p material all played back from our SAN. No voodo practice here, just a little bit of magic 😉
Seriously, the big advantage of FibreJet from Commandsoft is that it uses standard OS filesystems and therefore implemention of a SAN with it is (relatively) simple and can be done by somebody who has some computer experience. If you want to set up something like XSan you better should know what you

As far as I know the issue is solved???

An (more or less) easy workaround would be to import the Media 100 files into AE6.5, save the project and open it in AE7. Should work, but obviously is an extra step.

Andy,
this workflow is definitely supposed to work. I don

Are you speaking about Media 100 i or HD/sw? The HD importer seems to work from my initial tests, but I haven

Ask him to export as “Self contained”. This will keep the files in the original compression. You can download the codec for installation on your system at here. With this you can read and write nativer Media 100 files.

The XML Importer file should be placed in your AE->PlugIns->Standard->Format->fpf folder to read Media 100 XMLs.
The crashing is related to a bug in the XML importer plugin. There is a workaround to avoid the crash: if you have video clips on the Va track, move them all away, either to Vb or to V1 and up. Unfortunately you will have to remove your transitions, but at least the file usually will import fine into AE. It is not perfect, but it is a workaround. As far as I know a solution for this bug already has been found, and I hope that a new AE plugin will be posted on the website not soo far in the future.

If you export as self contained you cannot choose a compressor. As I said Media 100 HD will then only copy the parts from the original source files. It is like a by-reference export with included media. Only if you export as “other”->Quicktime Movie you will have the option to choose a codec.
