Rewrap XDCAM MOVs back to MP4 files?
Howdy...
I have a bunch of XDCAM EX MOV files from Macs that I'd like to Re-Wrap back to MP4 files without transcoding, so I can use them on Windows without using the QuickTime plugin. Anyone know how this can be done? Ideally in a batch workflow? Thanks! Best, Ben |

Convergent Design makes an application that converts XDCAM MOV's to XDCAM MXF files. It's a free app so you could give that a try.

Thanks for that. Found a free solution that does a similar job, although it wraps to MXF, not MP4. Still, Premiere in Windows recognizes it just fine:

I haven't figure that one out, but I've got a solution to rewrap them as MXF that makes them work just fine on a Windows machine (Premiere Pro, anyhow) without any purchased software: Download this file:xdcamfix.zip Extract the EXE and BAT files in the same folder as the MOVs. Double-click the BAT file. Profit. Any problems, let me know... but so far, two satisfied customers can't be wrong. |
Re: Rewrap XDCAM MOVs back to MP4 files?
You can do it with XDCAM browser or Clip Browser by using the Import function to import the MOV's back into a BPAV folder as MP4's, re-creating the correct file structure. Tedious as you can only do one clip at a time but it works.
We can't say this enough on these boards: ALWAYS back up the BPAV folder. It is your master and the only thing that is really cross platform compatible. |
