Free or Paid MXF Converter for Working with C300 MXF Files on Mac OS X

How to editing Canon C300 MXF files in Final Cut Pro 7 and Final Cut Pro X? Follow our tips to get free or paid MXF Converter to make video editing with C300 MXF footage go as smoothly as possible.

Working with Canon C300 footage – which is XDCAM 422 50/Mbs footage in a .MXF wrapper – should ordinarily be quite straight forward. MXF files will work natively in Adobe Premiere and ingest quite happily through a free plugin in Final Cut Pro 7 and FCP X. You can also bring this footage in through AMA into Avid Media Composer 6. AbelCine has an excellent step by step guide to importing C300 footage to Premiere CS6, FCP X, FCP 7 and Avid Media Composer 6. You can check it out here.

Everything will work seamlessly, that is, if your cards have been copied correctly to the hard drive with their entire folder structure intact. Without that folder structure you are effectively locked out of accessing your footage and an editing application like FCP7 will give you an error message like this one:

c300 import erroe message

How to Copy MXF Files Correctly

So how do you copy cards correctly?

Well first, and this may go without saying, but if you're going to get an intern or producer to do it make sure they know what they're doing. Essentially you must copy the entire card structure (preferably not through dragging and dropping in the finder).

Sony and Canon both have free browser apps that will let you back up your media. Or you could invest in something like Shotput Pro to duplicate your cards to multiple drives simultaneously. You are backing them up as you go, right?

If that's not enough detail, just watch this great tutorial on a correct tapeless media workflow from Shane Ross. Although the tutorial winds up in Final Cut Pro 7, the initial principles are the same for any system. If you want even more tips, check out this great video from Chase Jarvis on his complete tapeless workflow.

What To Do If Your C300 Card Structure Is Broken

If for whatever reason your card structure doesn't come across intact, what can you do?

Depending on your NLE you have various options. If you're in Adobe Premiere it doesn't matter, as it will read the MXF files just fine.

First, you can try to 'fake it' out by recreating the C300 card structure (which should look like the example below). In the past I'm sure I've gotten lucky with it but its a pretty slim chance of actually working.

FCPX needs a correct card structure so if you have to, transcoding in a 3rd party app is a feasible workaround.

Free App For Converting C300 MXF Files

Miro is a great free app (one of the few free apps I found) that actually works and works well. Miro Video Converter will allow you to grab the .MXF files and transcode them into Pro Res 422, DNxHD and AVC Intra 1080p and 720p. You can batch transcode as many of them as you like and it works pretty quickly. The files look great and were a higher quality than files I created using the demo of Pavtube iMedia Converter for Mac （Here is a detailed steps）. But as Miro is a free app, there are a few catches.

miro video converter

First, you cannot specify the output folder and it defaults to your MacHD > User > Movies folder. So you need to have enough space on your boot drive to transcode the footage too. This is also a problem if you have multiple files with the same name, (which I had on this edit with a two camera shoot) as this means you have to transcode one set at a time and move them out of the folder so as not to overwrite them with the next batch. Annoying.

Also the original camera footage I was working with had two audio tracks in it where as Miro would only export a single mono track. This was not helpful either as I needed to be able to mix each track individually.

Note: If you want to retain multiple audio tracks from Canon C300 MXF videos, you are recommended to get a professinal multi-track MXF Converter for Mac program: Pavtube iMixMXF. The following links are detailed steps:

Paid Apps for Working With C300 MXF Files

As I was editing on an FCP7 system I had to find a way to get my C300 MXF files to play nice with Final Cut Pro 7, while getting around the broken file structure. A cry for help on Twitter led to this great recommendation from Andy Mees who saved the day by suggesting I check out both MXF Import from Calibrated {Q} or MXF4Mac from Hamburg Pro Media. Both plugins essentially do the same thing which is to allow Quicktime (and any apps that make use of the Quicktime architecture) to work with MXF files, just like any other file.

Calibrated{Q} MXF Import for OSX is a QuickTime Import component for NATIVE Importing and Editing of MXF Files within Final Cut Pro 6, 7, and X without using Log and Transfer.

And you’re not just limited to Final Cut Pro, you can also natively import and work with MXF files in CatDV, Compressor, Motion, Sound Track Pro, QuickTime Player and Shake.

You can download a free demo of MXF Import from Calibrated {Q} to test that it will work on your system. The demos only restriction is that it only allows you to view the first 30 seconds of the clip, other than that it’s the same as the full app. After installing the plugin I could drop the C300 MXF files directly onto the timeline in FCP7 and get editing – and with the dual audio tracks in the original files! Huzzah.

Hopefully these tips will save you some time, effort and frustration with broken MXF file structures. And next time you’ll just copy the cards structure correctly…and get to editing!

To learn more about Canon, Panasonic P2, Sony XDCAM MXF videos editing and transcoding on Windows or Mac, the MXF Column from camcordervideoshare.altervista.org is highly recommended.

Adobe After Effects CS6: Sony XDCAM EX Readability Glitch (Solution: Reboot)

While editing an Adobe Premiere CS6 project based on XDCAM-EX footage (from an EX3), I thought I'd enhance the footage in After Effects (where more sophisticated enhancement effects than in Premiere are available). Should be easy I thought, taking advantage of the CS6 suite's Dynamic Link feature.

In Premiere, I selected the relevant clip and did [RightClick > Replace With After Effects Composition]. As expected, this opened After Effects, with the appropriate dynamic link to Premiere…

…BUT…

All I got on the Preview in After Effects, and indeed back in Premiere,  was Color Bars. I assumed this indicated some kind of failure in After Effects.

Naively, I concluded that, on my system at least, After Effects CS6 could not read XDCAM-EX. A brief web-search (further below) revealed user experiences and video convertor article-adverts implying that I was not alone with this problem. But an Adobe blog entry suggested that no such problem existed in AE CS6 and some and Adobe documentation (pdf) said so explicitly. For the moment then, I was confused…

Then I rebooted and tried again. This time it worked. I succeeded in making AE projects both by directly importing the footage (as mp4 files) in AE and via Dynamic Link from Premier.

The direct import dialog was slightly weird though: it claimed it was listing "All Acceptable Files" but these included not only [.mp4] files but also e.g. [.smi] files, which, when I selected one of these it complained: "…unsupported filetype or extension". Incidentally, the reason I tried it at all was that XDCAM-EX is a spanned format, where a single recording can be spanned/split/spread over multiple [.mp4] files. Furthermore, there can be an overlap of content from one [.mp4] to the next (in a span), so in principle (I haven't tried it), simply placing one [.mp4] after another on the timeline would give rise to a (short) repetition at each transition (from one [.mp4] to the next).

But this is already over-long for a single blog-post, so I'll deal with that issue in a separate post.

Web-research:

Jason Bullock    After Effects CS6 doesn't read EX1 XDCam footage
(by Jason Bullock on Oct 26, 2012 at 12:18:36 am)

Ever since I got CS6, After Effects cannot read my XDCam from my EX1. Premiere sees it just fine. But whether I try to do a direct import or use Dynamic Link, After Effects doesn't display it. All I see are color bars. Has anyone else had this problem and figured it out?


2. PavTube is a mediaconvertor (rewrapper/transcoder)

Since XDCAM isn't the greatest thing to use in After Effects, the following guide will show you how to transcode Sony XDCAM HD MXF, IMX files into Adobe After Effects CS4/CS5/CS6 preferred format for editing.

Using Pavtube iMedia Converter for Mac, you can press "Convert" button to start rewrapping Sony XDCAM files to MOV for AE. The Windows version is Video Converter Ultimate.

Good News! Pavtube Release a New Site - multipelife.com with Product Migration and Name Change.
To thanks for your continued support , we are holding a 'New Site Special'. You can get 20% off Video Converter Ultimate on Windows/Mac platform now.

Once the conversion process is done, click "Open" button to get the generated MOV files for using in Adobe After Effects CS4/CS5/CS6.

3. Can't import the MXF files from your Sony XDCAM, Canon XF or Panasonic P2 professional camcorder to AE? The reason is that the MXF container format contains data encoded using various compression and encodingschemes.

After Effects can only import some kinds ofdata contained within MXF files. Therefore, to successfully import MXF to Adobe AfterEffects, it is essential for you to convert Sony XDCAM/XDCAM HD/XDCAM EX, Canon XF, Panasonic P2 MXF to AE CS4/CS5/CS6 supported formats and codecs as follows:

DV (in MOV or AVI container, or as containerless DVstream)

FLV, F4V(encoded On2 VP6 video codec)

Media eXchange Format (MXF):

Panasonic P2 using the AVC-Intra 50, AVC-Intra 100, DV, DVCPRO,DVCPRO50, and DVCPRO HD codecs.
XDCAM HD files in MXF format with OP1format with MPEG-2compression codec.

MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-4 formats: MPEG, MPE, MPG, M2V, MPA, MP2, M2A, MPV, M2P, M2T, M2TS (AVCHD), AC3, MP4, M4V, M4AQuickTime (MOV; 16 bpc, requires QuickTime)

Video for Windows (AVI, WAV; requires QuickTime onMac OS)

Windows Media File (WMV, WMA, ASF; Windows only)

XDCAM HD and XDCAM EX (Sony XDCAM HD assets record to MXF files and Sony XDCAM EX assets stored as essence files with the .mp4 filename extension in aBPAV directory).
  (…but that last one is what the EX3 records ok but that AE would not accept… so I was expecting here a format to rewrap or transcode it to…)


4. http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2012/06/codecs-and-the-render-engine-in-after-effects-cs6.html

In After Effects CS6, you can now run aerender or use the watch folder functionality in a non-royalty-bearing mode, without activating the render-only instances of the application.

In this non-royalty-bearing mode, the following codec-specific features are disabled:

decoding and encoding (import and export) of MPEG-2 video, including formats that are based on MPEG-2 video: XDCAM EX, XDCAM HD and other formats in MXF OP1a containers, and HDV
decoding of AC3 / Dolby Digital audio, which is used in AVCHD media

If you want to enable these royalty-bearing codecs, you need to activate After Effects on each rendering computer, meaning that you need to enter a serial number after installation.

{Huh? My After Effects is activated, and being used directly, not as a render-service. So presumably it ought to understand XDCAM-EX?}

5. Google: XDCAM After Effects CS6 Spanned

http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/premiere/cs6/pdfs/adobe-premiere-pro-cs6-sony-xd-cam.pdf

Adobe After Effects supports the same XDCAM formats as Adobe Premiere Pro.
