How do I successfully merge MXF and DV files in a sequence?

I have a Panasonic with a P2 card (and DV film).  I have a reader.  I have successfully transferred all the files to my computer, and imported them into PP6, no problem.  My only issue is this: if I want to consolidate the MXF files with the camera's film (DV) files in the same sequence, I have issues.
  If I make the sequence compatible for the MXF, the DV files are small-in-a-box size.  If I make the sequence NTSC DV, the DV's are great, but the MXF frames are over the top huge (we're talking nose hairs and cropped head tops)  I've played around a bit with some formats, but I keep getting the same problem.
I'm betting there's one in here that somebody already figured out that works for both file types in a sequence.  Or...is it during export that the change might happen?  Really would like to be able to use both media types in one sequence if possible.  Is it?  If I'm going to need to convert the files to say, .mov, am I going to lose enough quality to care about, or is that totally counter-productive.  I downloaded a trial version of "Wondershare"  as advertised on the internet as an MXF converter, but I tried it and it didn't seem to be able to work with the audio files (as they are separated in the MXF content folder) 
Any input, much loved.  (I tried exporting the MXF separately to an .mov and re-importing, but it didn't seem to help).

No idea if this will help with your problem, but there is a CS6 Issue/Bug MXF http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1074489
Also, mixing SD and HD means that something has to give... and if you want everything at SD resolution, you may want to look up "interpret footage" in the help file, to "force" the HD video into the SD screen size (note that I do not mix video types, so I really can't give detailed instructions)
Also, if you export the MXF it would need to be into an SD file, not just another HD file of a different type

  • Merging XML and XDP files

    Hello!
    I must build this POC for a client and the idea is merge XML and XPD files to feed a LiveCycle Output process and create PDF files.
    I've built the XDP files and the XML to start things, now I need to figure out how to create the process to merge them in Workbench.
    Is there any tutorial to help me with this task?

  • How can i re-link .mpkg and .pkg files to hidden Installer?

    I am near the end of the process of setting up my new Mac Pro (early 2009) eight core. Quite the wonderful difference from my "Mirror Drive Door" dual 1.25 GHz machine!
    The Mac Pro came with Mac OS X 10.6.2 installed. I updated this to 10.6.6 via Software Update along with a slew of other updates presented there. I downloaded and installed a bunch of software. Finally, I was ready to install iLife 11 from the "CPU Drop-in" DVD that was on top of the box when the computer was originally unpacked.
    Unfortunately, it wouldn't even begin the install. The "iLife.mpkg" file, when double-clicked, returned the error message "no application associated with this document". Hours of investigation reveals that NO .mpkg or .pkg file will open; doing a "get info" on the files reveals that those files have lost their link to the Installer app.
    AND since the only installer I can find is hidden in /usr/sbin, there is no way I can re-link .mpkg and .pkg files to it via "get info".
    I downloaded Pacifist and used it to open the "Mac OS X 10.6.6 Combo" package and re-installed the Combo updater. Much to my surprise, that didn't fix the linking issue.
    I've logged in as root, but still can't re-link the package files to the Installer as /usr/ is still hidden. Is there a way I can temporarily "un-hide" the /usr directory so that "get info; open with" can see it?
    I've started from the Mac OS X installer DVD and repaired permissions on the hard disk and "repaired" the hard disk. No luck there either.
    I did a clean install of Mac OS X 10.6.2 to a different hard drive and applied the combo updater and the packages worked as expected there. So some software I installed or by running a slew of updaters via Software Update broke the link between packages and the Installer.
    I'm sure that re-linking to packages to the hidden installer app can be done via Terminal and possible other ways, but I don't know how to do it.
    Short of doing a complete Mac OS X 10.6 re-installation and update and having to re-do several days of other software installations and data transfers, I'm hoping someone will offer some solutions or tips on how to solve my problem.
    How do I re-link .mpkg and .pkg files to the Installer?

    Thanks for the reply. I know I had previously checked for the missing installer in /System/Library/CoreServices/ and I rechecked and it's still not there. But your tip spurred me to check the test 10.6.6 installation on the other hard disk and yes! It's there!
    A quick copy from the second hard disk to my current hard disk and doing the "get info" trick and everything now works wonderfully. Only one day lost to trying to figure this out. Now that the problem is fixed, quite the relief.

    To be expected if you are working in a contemporary OS and contemporary MS Office suite.
    The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into End of Support mid-year of 2013.
    The product isn't compatible with contemporary OSs or Office suite.

  • How to package/inlcude C++ .exe and .dll files in a Java Web Start App?

    Hello,
    I have a Java Web Start application that runs fine if the application is only 1 .jar file.
    But I have a need to also run C++ .exe and .dll file from my Java application.
    I wonder if someone could please tell me how to package/include C++ .exe and
    .dll files in my Java web start application?
    Thank you and Best Regards,
    Akino

    You need to place the EXE and DLLs inside the jar.
    Java cannot execute them from the jar. They have to be extracted (see Class.getResourceAsStream) from the jar and copyied into the target machine file system, perahps to the temp directory. Now you can execute them using Runtime.exec() or ProcessBuilder.start().

    How do I recover a .app and its file contents after osx "click and hold" "hit x button" delete.
    Accidently deleted rapidweaver and all of its content and paid plugins with it. all contain in its package contents. how do i restore.  I tried using recovery software.

    It is possible that you inadvertently corrupted the file while doing the edit.
    But it could also be possible that you moved the file? For iMovie to see it, it should be in the Movies/iMovie Projects folder.

  • How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad

    How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad?

    You can email them, you can use DropBox, SugarSync or another cloud service or you can use iOS file sharing.
    But in all cases you need an app on the iPad that will open and save those types of files. iBooks, Adobe Readers, Good Reader and Save 2 PDF will all save PDF files.
    Documents to Go, Quick Office Pro and the Apple iWorks apps will open and save the MS office files. You can Google - "iPad apps that are compatible with Microsoft Office files" and you will find other alternatives - or search the app store for more.
    You can read this as well for some instruction on getting those files onto an iPad.

  • How to demultiplex the merged audio and video streams

    Hi. I'm currently working on a video conferencing program. I successfully implemented the program using threads to run the audio and the video clients and servers. The problem with this is that the delay for the transmission of both media is a little too great. So now, I'm trying to merge both media into on DataSource, so then I don't have to worry about sending audio and video into 2 different ports and RTP sessions. I know how to merge the audio and video streams, but I was wondering how to extract each media back after receiving the merged audio and video streams. Any ideas? I used the createMergingDataSource(the_DataSource_array) method to merge both streams. Thanks.

    I am working on the same problem. Is there any solution yet?

  • MXF and AVCHD files with Final Cut

    I am looking into buying a new camera and there are 2 file formats that I have never used. MXF and AVCHD. AVCHD I know is not native to final cut. So this would need transcoded to Apple Pro Res. All fine and dandy there. But where I am unsure, is MXF. Can I just import them directly into final cut as if it were a .mov file? Do they need transcoded? Any special plug ins needed?

    Canon's web site says...
    The XF100 utilizes Canon's XF Codec – a file-based MPEG-2 compression with an MXF File Wrapper that ensures the widest compatibility with existing industry infrastructure, metadata and non-linear editing (NLE) systems. The codec's 4:2:2 color sampling provides ultra-fine transitions in tone and color for maintaining the highest image quality needed for advanced post production processing.
    Since it is not out I guess no one can say how well it will work with FCP although apparently it will ship with something to enable FCP compatibility.

  • .mxf and .scc files

    So here's my stats.  Using FCP 7 and Compressor 3.5 (heard about the nightmares of X and never wanted to touch it).
    I've been outputting to mpeg files and transcoding with an .scc file hasn't been an issue.  Now the station is asking for IMX/MXF files.  I've tried every trick I can think of.  Tried "New Job with Target Output", and still the .scc gets stripped away.  So my question is, will FCP X/Compressor 4 work with IMX/MXF files AND .scc files or am I relegated to taking this "out of house"?
