I’m just posting my experience.
It has worked for me so it may work for others as well.
Up until El Capitan it worked fine.

I am as I find things I need.

Thank you Alex, but I’m using the standard keyboard layout.
I want to be a Premiere editor, not a Final Cut Pro editor working on Premier.

Figured it out.
Apparently any in/out points and titles get saved to the card structure so if you plug the drive or insert the card into another computer it carries over.

Even to Log and transfer tool.

I had XDCAM Browser 2_6 and PDZK-P1 XDCAM Transfer v2_13_0 installed.

I just downloaded and installed Log and Transfer Plug-in Version 1.2 it does not specify for FCP 6 or 7.

I’m running 6 and it installed fine.

I rebooted the computer after the install and still no FILE -> EXPORT -> Sony XDCAM Browser.

I promise if I ever get it figured out, I’ll let you know if it adds extra black.

I made a new one according to the link you posted above.
The process say s to start with an existing one and modify it.

“Create and save a custom preset

Choosing a format automatically makes available a list of associated presets designed for particular delivery scenarios. Adobe Media Encoder uses characteristics of the source item to make its best guess about the best preset to select. You can create and save your own presets, export them, or import additional ones.

You can change the presets settings in the Export Settings dialog. Click Preset > Settings or press Ctrl+Alt+E to open the Export Settings dialog.

Note:
Adobe Technical Support supports only Adobe Media Encoder presets that are included with Adobe applications.

In the Format menu, select a format.

In the Preset menu, select the preset that most closely matches the settings you want. If the preset has been edited, you will see Custom next to the preset.

Click the format or preset name to open the Export Settings dialog box and edit the settings.

Click the Save Preset button.

Type a name for the preset, choose whether to save specific categories of parameters as prompted, and click OK.

Note:
The encoding presets are located in the same location as the Adobe Media Encoder files. To access presets quickly, right-click a user preset in the Preset Browser and choose Reveal Preset File.”

I don’t know how to create a new one from scratch.

We have a version of Creative Cloud and I did look at it and I have the same options that you described, but I can’t change the audio from uncompressed to PMC.

Thanks Patrick, but that didn’t work as you described.

I installed XDCam Browser and still don’t see it in the File>Export options.
I only have File>Export>Sony XDCAM.

I even rebooted the system after the install.

I know it’s installed because I can see it i n Applications and even open it, but I can’t bring and MOV of the final show into it to convert and export.

Steve.

[Steven Cohen]

Thanks Shane.

Can it be done in FCP 7 or the version of Compressor that is in that suite?

I took a look at Adobe Media Encoder in the Creative Cloud suite and the list of options was far greater, but still my only choice of audio output was Uncompressed. I could choose the number of tracks and whether it was 16 or 24 bit, but I can’t change it to PCM.

Steve.

[Steven Cohen]

Thanks Shane.

I did do it before, about 2 years ago when Lifetime was first talking about doing file based delivery and they said I got very close to what they wanted, but I can’t for the life of me remember what I did or what program I used.

Suck getting old and losing your memory.

Thanks for the info Joe, but the powers that be are looking for real time.
