To FTP 22GB wil most likely take a few days, and then she has to download as well.

The best thing is like Craig says copy the BPAV folder to a cheap HD USB or Firewire, and have her buy it or send it back to you. Or you could use a couple thumb drives or SD/CF cards by splitting the file as outlined above.

Then send her a link to download Sony's SW.
Sony | Micro Site - XDCAM EX
or
Sony of Canada E-support
or
Sony : XDCAM & XDCAM EX Software Downloads : United Kingdom

I guess BPAV would be the best for FCP then.

I'll split it and upload the resulting folders containing what she wants. Thanks for the help.

Turns out the maximum upload size is 1GB.

Here is what I did:

Using Clip Browser:

1. I created a new folder

2. Selected the clips that I wanted

3. Copied and pasted them to the new folder (BPAV folders are automatically created.)

4. Split the folder into 4.7 GB sizes.

5. Ended up with 5 folders that I can burn to 5 DVDs.

Question: Which program will burn data dvds that can be read on both a PC and a MAC.

ImgBurn?

Thanks,
John

Any program, will do. If you can read the DVD on a PC you can read it on a Mac.

You may have to make the files a little smaller like 4.3GB to actually fit on the DVD's. But maybe not, just don't be surprised if the 4.7 does not fit.

But this system will definitely work.

Thanks for all the help everyone. I sent her 5 DATA DVDs created with RecordNow Max with instructions and she is very happy about what she will receive thanks to all your helpful suggestions.

No way. You would have to archive it and split it into parts. That's not even mentioning the reliability of the upload and download let alone the time required to upload. I doubt you could upload so much data in less than a few days unless you have a corporate Internet line.

(EDIT) delted misinformation noted by Perrone

This won't work cross platform.
