Hello Matt,
Have you got a solution to ingesting the mts files into FCP? Have you tried upgrading to FCP 6.0.5?
I also saw a bit of advice that said to disable the Perian QT plugin. I offer these suggestions but they have not helped me as I’m having similar problems working with AVCHD files .m2ts files in FCP v. 6.0.5
The files are from the Sony HDR SR 12E AVCHD camera and I’m not able to get my FCP to see the files.
I’m using the MacBook Pro – OSX v.10.5.6, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.8GHz, 4 GB RAM
The shooter gave me the files on a drive. I open Log and Transfer to get the clips into FCP which won’t see the files. My import Preferences in Log and Transfer show a AVCHD plugin w/ a choice of Apple Pro Res 422 or Apple Intermediate Codec. So I should be able to ingest the files. Or so I thought.
In Log and Transfer, when I try to Drag Files to the bottom window or open the drive, in the Add Folder button, I get a message that says: “contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media.”
I read everywhere that FCP w/ an Intel processor and version 6.0.5 should see the files.
If you’ve made it Log and Transfer work for your files. I would love to hear about it.
Thank you.
Jen
