Does this mean that the 1080p60 incompatibility issue doesn’t imply since the camera naturally shoots 1080i60?

Cool thank you so much again Shane. I’ll see if I can make anything work by analyzing the card for cross-formatting issues and trying a few variants in shooting formats, and will otherwise just stick to ClipWrap (and probably ProResLT).

Best,
Ross

Thanks Shane. I think the formatting has been consistent with the cam, so I don’t think that’s the issue.

And I think that you’re correct that the cam only shoots in 60i; I’ve read more and the standard for “cinema mode” is def 24p. If it does only shoot 60i, 60p would not be the issue, right?

I have ClipWrap which does indeed allow me to convert to FCP formats, so I can always try that if need-be.

Thanks again for your help.

thanks for the reply shane. i think you might be correct about the formatting issue…

the org i volunteer with (why i’m shooting) just keeps things on the standard “cinema” format, which i’m pretty sure (for the Canon HF M400) is 1080p60 (see https://www.amazon.com/Canon-VIXIA-M400-Camcorder-Slots/dp/B004HW7E4M). i can change the setting to shoot at 30p, but it says that this is still recorded at 60i…will that still mean i’m out of luck?

appreciate all the help again…

Thanks for all your help Shane. I moved on to attempt a L&T from the SD card from my Canon HF M400 but have run into an issue. I captured the contents of the SD card in full onto my portable media drive, and tried (from Final Cut 7) to L&T from the folder where I dropped the SD contents. However, I received this error message: “(folder) contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media.” The .MTS video format is AVC HD so I thought that FCP 7 had a built-in plug-in to read this footage, so am not sure why the error is occurring. Could this relate to the point in your video tutorial about how sometimes files are skipped when copying? Will I have to turn to something like ShotPut Pro?
