Import AVCHD TO FCP X Issue at DVinfo.net

Gerry Fraiberg · October 24th, 2015, 09:18 AM

I've posted this elsewhere, but thought someone here might be able to help.

I'm unable to import AVCHD files to FCP X from a folder containing all the files and folders copied from an SDXC card recorded on a Sony PXW-X70. Sony Catalyst Browse can see the clips, and can transcode. The clips are also visible in the camera. This is a new development. Previous backup folders work - either AVCHD or XAVC-L.

The card in question is a 64 GB Transcend SXDC. No inconsistencies were found in the "Repair Image Data Base File" in the camera. The card had been formatted in the camera. Material recorded later on the same day works (32GB card). In the Import window, the File Type shows as Media Folder, the others are just Folder. I restarted the Mac, trashed Preferences with Preference Manager, Uninstalled and reinstalled Catalyst Browse.

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

FCP X 10.2.2
Mac Pro (early 2009), 8MB Ram
OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

Go into the folder structure & simply delete the XDROOT folder (assuming you haven't used XAVC as well)

Thank you very much Paul. That was a simple fix.
