Issues ingesting footage from EX-1R
 

I'm a long time EX-1 user. I was given EX-1R footage. He copies the BPAV folders onto bluray, I copied them onto a hard drive, all seems to be there. XDCAM transfer just won't take it in, not even an error message. I had been on version 2.11. I updated to 2.13, still nothing. I tried to ingest through FCP, but this time got an error message:

warning. BPAV.spanned contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. etc etc.

I got a call into sony with priority. So far 20 hours later.......

Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thank you

Can you view footage in XDcam Browser or Content Browser?

A thought -- When files are transferred to optical media such as CD / DvD / Blu-Ray, often the files are automatically flagged as read-only. Sometimes the read only attribute needs to be removed in order to work with them.

Is your destination drive correctly set? Could XDCAM transfer be trying to copy the .mov files to the BluRay disk which of course it cannot do. Just a thought.

You should really be using Content Browser these days. The transfer tool is somewhat out of date.
