OK your other workable solution is to download the free full working version of Adobe Premiere CS5 or 5.5, it will see you XDcam files natively and you can then use the Adobe Media Encoder to batch convert to Pro Res Proxy as you have the codec already installed.
As the Adobe is 64 bit it will churn these files out quicker than Compressor.
Otherwise you can use the Cinemon XDcam MP4 tool full working trial version.
I’ve used cinemon several times before with out problem.Put simply you simply import the files straight into FCP or drag the mp4 files you require either batch
process or send to compressor.Shur

Hi Stephanie, as mentioned earlier try reformatting the card first if not then get a card with a high write speed than x133.

It will be interesting to see how the image quality stacks up and with Resolve lite, it seems a good package from Blackmagic. Edit workflow should be a breeze with the card and codec technology experience.

Hi Nathan,
Check out this link to a FCP X for broadcast network case study, I know there are FCP project translation apps to move 7 to FCP X, so the bulk of you edit programme template may still be intact or a few minor changes needed to tweak it.
See case study link here. https://fcp.co/final-cut-pro/articles/691-using-fcpx-on-long-format-broadcast-productions
Let me know if it gave any useful insight.

Hi Alan,
Please check out the FCP log and transfer plugin that will allow you to bring your footage in at Pro Res opt for Pro Res proxy codec in the log and transfer options window as this will save space and allow you to rough cut quicker.
Hope this helps.

Hi according to the specs you have 4pin firewire so you can go straight to your Macbook pro depending if its 6 (FW400) or 9 pin (FW800) otherwise you would need a capture card or converter for HDMI or composite options.
