View Full Version : FCP 7 & Sony XDCAM EX Log and Transfer?

I have been trying to ingest EX3 clips from a BPAV folder after installing the Sony XDCAM EX Log and Transfer plugin (ver. 1.0..) and keep receiving the following error message:

"359_0096_01" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media."

Problem solved ... operator misunderstanding.

It appears that the BPAV folder must be located in a secondary folder of its own. Once that was accomplished, the ingestion process was very quick indeed, much speedier than ingestion via the Transfer utility.

Are you using FCP7? I've found ingestion is faster now with the new Log & Transfer, whereas XDCT used to be faster.

Agreed, Log and Transfer is many times faster than XDCT with the new FCP 7.
