You can download the FCP5_HD_and_Broadcast_Formats.pdf from the Apple Web site (Support for Final Cut PRO) and know how Final Cut Pro handles IMX media.

As far as I know, MXF is a container for the media, like QuickTime.
That plug-in only changes this container from MXF to QT.

You have to copy the MXF FIles into your computer. Once you have MXF files on your hard disk, you need to extract the IMX MPEG-2 media
data and store it within QuickTime media files. This process requires a third-party
plug-in (Telestream) that extends the ability of Final Cut Pro to import MXF-encoded media. Once
your IMX media has been converted from MXF to QuickTime media files, you can
import the QuickTime media files into Final Cut Pro.IMX can be recorded using NTSC or PAL video standards at three possible bit rates
(30, 40, and 50 Mbps). Final Cut Pro supports real-time editing and effects using the
50 Mbps IMX format. You can use 30 and 40 Mbps IMX in Final Cut Pro, but the
RT Extreme playback engine does not support these formats -
You can use Compression Master 3.1 to do it. This software provides some presets to export QuickTime Movies as MPEG-2 multiplexed streams. Export your timeline as a QT Movie and try it with CM.

You have to download the iFinish Transcoder from the Media 100 web. Install it on your computer and you can play normally.

You can download the Compatible Peripherals guide for Media 100 HD in the Media 100 website and check it.
From a technical point of view you can do it. We have a Cinewave station with HD connected to a XServe RAID with 4x250GB and 512+512 MB Cache and works perfectly. It is necessary to have 512 MB cache for each fibre controller, but the latest Apple Xserves RAID have installed on it.
Of course, the 10x400GB is most recommended config.

We are running QT7 without problems with our 8.2.2. And with Tiger is like have a completely new computer. I think the major changes in QT7 are those related to the new HD codecs not for the QT engine.

I have installed an “old” Media 100 v8.2.2 on a G4 Dual 1GHZ. I will try this next week because now we are using our new (and powerful) Media 100 HD. I will post our test in the next week.
