The FAM driver for Mac OS X (that means XDCAM discs are shown in the Finder) is included in the XDCAM Transfer installer. https://servicesplus.us.sony.biz/sony-software.aspx?model=PDZKP1

Nickel,
The timecode on the proxy MXF files matches the timecode in the hi-res MXF. Check out the free XDCAM Transfer Mac software from Sony. One of the menu options allows you to export a QuickTime movie of a proxy for review etc.

> An Apple rep I spoke to didn’t have any info on a duplicate clip bug, so it’s important that anyone using the XDCam HD Transfer software give Apple and Sony feedback.
This was a bug in FCP, that Apple described here: “Final Cut Pro 5: Unexpectedly quits after importing XDCAM Clips” https://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304033. It has been fixed in the FCP 5.1.2 update.

I’m curious what kind of things are going wrong when you export.
Did the error message give any hint as to what was wrong? Do all your sequences have the same settings?
It seems like if it works for 13 second sequence and 4 minute sequence it should work for 3 minute one. They’re just files, right?!

Have you tried using the ‘Current Settings’ option in the XDCAM Export dialog? This seems to avoid the re-render. (Of course, you have to make sure your sequence settings exactly match your XDCAM configuration.)
