Can video files made with a Canon XA-10 be imported into FCPX?

Files made with a Canon XA-10 do not seem to be recognized by FCPX.
Recording system of camcorder is  MPEG-4 AVC/H.264.
Is there a format problem or a media conversion that needs to be made?
Thank you.
John

Tom is exactly right.  Connect the XA10 to the computer using the USB cable that came with it.  Then go File > Import from Camera.
Up will pop the import from camera window, which should show two cameras -- your Mac's built-in iSight camera, as well as your XA-10.  And you should see the thumbnails from all the various videos you've shot with the camera.  Just select the ones you want to import and click Import.
FCPX will begin importing (and transcoding) the videos.  Do not disconnect the camera while this process is unfolding (it may take a while depending on how many videos and how long the videos are).

  • SWF Video file made with AVS

    I have a videofile given to me from the client as a SWF, they
    have used AVS software to convert.
    I load the SWF file in using MovieClipLoader, it plays ok,
    however, I can't seem to control it. I need to know when the clip
    is finished, and for it to stop looping. I also want to be able to
    stop it when the video is clicked.
    Has anyone had experience of this type of Video file? I would
    appreciate any response,
    Thanks,

    Well, if you are weighing things against WMP, it could be that PrE could have done something differently.
    Now, I am not a fan of WMP, and am REALLY not a fan of RealMedia Player. I liken that latter one to a Trojan, waiting to happen. I last had a version installed about 12 years ago, and would never let another copy near any of my computers.
    Besides the two that I mentioned, GOM Player gets high marks, as well.

  • Avchd video file made with Premiere Elements 8 won't fast forward or reward

    I just finished an AVCHD video project in Premiere 8 and I can't fast forward or rewind the file on my computer with Windows Media Player or in Windows Media Center. The file plays nicelly but it's annoying watch it from start to finish for 45 minutes.
    I have a Vixia HF S20 - the video format of the original files was ACHD. After finishing editing the project I choose to save it on my PC (a Dell Inspiron 8100 with I5 - so lots of power awailable) as a MPEG file. I noticed that this format was the only one that gave me the option to save the video in H.264 1920x1080i 30 preset.
    The rendering of the video took some 3 hours. It saved the video in AVCHD format and at playback, on my computer screen, it looks just as it should - HD quality - but the lack of controls it's really, really stupid!
    Anyway, I need help to figure out what is happening here. Did I do something wrong? Are there other saving settings/presets to choose from that retain the HD quality I am not aware of?  Thanks a million in advance!

  • I can't open a 32-bit HDR file made with Photoshop HDR in Lightroom.

    I can't open a 32-bit HDR file made with Photoshop HDR. I saved the file in Photoshop with the maximum compatibility-option on. In Lightroom the file doesn't show a preview and an exclamation mark in the upper right corner. Anybody an idea why and how to solve this problem?

    As I said, the files must be saved in TIFF format in order for LR to recognize them.

  • Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past yet says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again.  re-recorded 3 times and still not accepting HELP

    Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past doing this. After 3 attempts recording the hour long video and trying to upload it to iMovie, it says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. What could the reason be?

    After much research and troubleshooting, GoToMeeting replied with the final answer: We do not support the uploading of recordings to editing software. If you are having issues uploading a recording, unfortunately, we do not have tools or steps to resolve this. It is not a supported feature. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. 
    The no longer plan to support editing of recordings made with their software.  So, we are planning to find a new meeting provider.

  • I have an old mpg video file, taken with a very early model "smart phone", that opens and plays fine in my newly "rebuilt" iPhoto library. I cannot open, edit it or share it with any other software. How can I fix it, to be able to do anything with it?

    I have an old mpg video file, taken with a very early model "smart phone", that opens and plays fine in my newly "rebuilt" iPhoto library. I cannot open, edit it or share it with any other software. How can I fix it, to be able to do anything with it?
    Detail:
    I've recently purchaced a 4TB Thunderbolt drive to store my "vast" music and photo libraries. iPhoto had an issue reading the moved library, so I bought and used iPhoto Library Manager to "rebuild" it. Apart from much of the original data such as date taken & camera used etc, it appears to be working well. The aforementioned mpg video was taken some 9 years ago, using an early model "iMate" smart phone, and opens and plays fine on iPhoto, but I cannot open it with anything else, (I've tried iMovie, VLC players, Wondershare and Handbrake) nor can I share it. I just want to edit it, and share it with family.
    Any help would be appreciated...

    No - not iMovie, VLC, Wondershare or Handbrake... Quick time starts with a "CONVERTING", then I get
    I've looked at the "tell me more" links, tried downloading some of the movie players there. I'm begining to think the file is corrupt.

  • HT202879 How can I open a file made with old version of Pages (before 09)?

    I need to open a file made with old version of Pages (before 09).  How can I do this?  I only have iworks Pages free with Mac Book Pro.

    You need either Pages '09 or the original Pages '08? programs.
    With Pages '09 you simply open it and it accurate converts it to Pages '09. Pages 5 will open the Pages '09 version but may alter/damage the file.
    With Pages '08 you Export it to Word .doc/.docx with mixed results, then open that in Pages 5 which may alter/damage the file.

  • Video files produced with E90 doesn't play on oth...

    Hi all, the video file produce with my E90 communicator is not compatible with my other Nokia phone model's RealPlayer, can someone please tell me what exactly is the video format of E90?
    Do I need to install a codes in order to play on other Nokia phone models? I assume it was Mpeg4.

    First, try going to store at the top of itunes and check for purchases. Just to make sure that the movie was finished downloading.
    If the video did not download correctly, then the only way to fix it is to download it again.
    In your account screen in the itunes store, there is a purchase history section. In this section, you can report problems with music, movies or anything that you have downloaded.
    Try using the purchase history section to report a problem and let the itunes store support that an error keeps coming up that the movie did not down load correctly

  • Can video files be added to a slide show in Elements 5 or 10?

    Can video files be added to a slide show in Elements 5 or 10?

    I would recommend PSE11/PRE11 if you want to use them on an integrated basis. Only the current product is supported by Adobe. Or you could get PRE10 if you are not concerned about support.
    But be aware that one version will not integrate with another. They will work as stand alone apps but you would loose some flexibility. For example I start in the Slideshow editor in PSE, add my photos and transitions and then click Output >> Edit with PRE. The slideshow gets sent automatically as a clip and I can do further editing, add video, add music and narration etc.

  • Read binary file made with VB

    Hi there,
    Here is something I never did, so a little help is welcome
    I have a binary file made with VB and I want to read it with LabVIEW 8.5.
    I know the structure of the records in the file, it's something like: 
        str1      As String * 5
        str2      As String * 6
        str3     As String * 2
        date      As Date
        str4     As String * 20
        str5   As String * 20
        int1       As Integer  
        flt1    As Single 
        flt2     As Single
        flt3      As Single
    and so on.
    Further on there's even a 2D array: 3 rows, 400 cols of singles.
    The total length of one record is 5120 bytes.
    I can pick up whatever record from the file using the "Set file positions" & "Read from binary file" vi's but how do I convert those 5120 bytes in the correct structure?
    I was thinking of a cluster but how do I define a fix string length in LV?
    Also, is a cluster the right way to go?
    So, like I said any help is welcome
    Thanks

    Defining a fixed sized string officially not possible, and even the non official way will get you bugs, so let's do the official route.
    First open up the file with a hex editor, I normally use the Total Commander's built in F3, and then hit '3' to get a hex view. In that view I check wheter the lenght of the string is prepended to the string (Pascal and LabVIEW style) or ended with a Null (C style).
    If none of them is happening, I would use a cluster of 5 U8's to get the string, convert this cluster to an array, and convert that to a string.
    I have no idea what a 'Date' representation is in VB.
    A cluster is very suitable for this task, however I do not get the info about the 2D array, if you could add a data file that would be very helpfull.

  • Camera-raw plugin for NEF files, made with the new Nikon D7200

    Hi, does anyone know when there will be a camera-raw plugin for NEF files made with the new Nikon D7200?

    I think that camera is too new. Even the DNG converter will not support it. If you have Nikon software with the camera, you could convert to tiff and then use the tiff files in Elements whilst awaiting the next Camera Raw update for PSE13.

  • How do I view .mov files taken with a Canon 60D on my iPad?

    I am trying to view video files taken by my Canon 60D on my new iPad. I copied the files from my camera to my PC, then tried to transfer them to the iPad using iTunes. iTunes displays a message stating that the files were not copied to the device because they are not compatible. The files appear to be H.264, 1080, 30fps which the iPad should support (according to http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/).
    Did I try to transfer the files incorrectly or is there another issue that I am running into?

    This does not answer the question at all. I don't want to organize it by note, I just want to be able to see the "whole" note. Sometimes the whole note is displayed and sometimes it isn't. I have a calendar event/meeting that was entered in Outlook. That meeting will include information that is pertinent to the meeting. When I look at the meeting on my iPhone, the information in the note, will not display. The first 3 lines might be there and the rest is cut off.
