How to transfer XDCAM from EX1 using ProRes 422

Ok, I'm starting to think a little above my pay-grade here, but:
My understanding is that I can directly import XDCAM files shot on a Sony EX1 by placing the SxS card in my MBP express card slot and using Sony's transfer application. However, I want to transcode to ProRes 422 because the timeline will contain P2 footage from an HVX200.
Does the ProRes 422 step require the EX1 camera itself to be connected via firewire, or can I transcode using just the cards? If I transfer using the native codec but edit in a ProRes 422 timeline, can I edit both the P2 and XDCAM footage just as well as if they had been transcoded on transfer?
Any advice welcome. Tnx!

There is no direct file based XDCAM EX to ProRes ingest method in FCP. You can import the footage directly into FCP using Sony's XDCAM Transfer app or through FCP's own Log and Transfer interface when using Sony's PDZK-LT1 FCP Log and Transfer plugin. Either way, its just a rewrap of the native media into an FCP friendly Quicktime wrapper.
If you want to transcode to ProRes for edit then you need to either transcode the imported clips using FCP's Media Manager > Recompress option (or some other post capture transcode method/software eg Compressor, MPEG Streamclip etc) or capture the media directly as ProRes using the camera's baseband output together with a suitable I/O device attached to your Mac.
Can you edit the XDCAM footage directly in a ProRes timeline? Absolutely ... obviously it will not be as render free / fluid as if you were editing in a native timeline, but depending on the power of you Mac it should offer no real issue. I know many who always edit with their camera native media such as XDCAM HD/EX and HDV directly in a ProRes timeline as a matter of course.
Hope it helps
Andy

    How to transfer songs from one iPad to another iPad using iTunes?

    You can't without a third party app. If you didn't purchase the Music with your Apple ID or if the music was imported from CD's on your friends iTunes library, syncing will not work ....nor will transferring purchases.
    Look at this app .... TouchCopy

    how to transfer data from macbook pro to an external hard drive, im using (WD 1TB 3.0) ???. I cannot copy anything from my mac to it not a single file.

    ok - since you'll be sharing it with a PC - connect it to your windows pc - then format from there - instead of NTFS format - choose exFAT.
    or, you can read the link below on how to do it in dos mode.

    once you've formatted it - you can now use it in both your macbook and windows computer.

  • How to transfer files from mac to ipad without using itunes

    how to transfer files from mac to ipad without using itunes ???
    as i want to use my ipad for official use as well...please suggest..

    well to be 100% technical, no you didn't but that aside, it good to know there are ways for people to transfer music into the default apps without iTunes, if they have a need.
    I tend to use 3rd party apps for documents, like your mentioned iExplorer etc, which are handy.
    I see from a search the two "apps" you mentioned are not iOS apps, which I had assumed, SyncPod and FreeSync are apps for your computer, that would explain their access to the default Music/Video apps.
    I had wondered how Apple had allowed iOS apps in the store that could get around the sandboxing in iOS of apps.

  • How to transfer stock from sample usage to  unrestricted use

    Dear  sir
    how to transfer stock from sample usage to  unrestricted use

    I suppose user has accidently posted quantity to sample usage?
    Do you see material document with movement type 333 for this material?
    You can search material document list using MB51 transaction
    or If you know the inspection lot, You can list material documents list from inspection lot.
    If you can find the material document number -->Use MBST transaction to reverse the movement
    If you can not find material document --> use Mb1C transaction use movement type 561.
    In either case stock can not be return to same inspection lot. You can activate another inspection lot using inspection type 05 if needed.
    Hope this helps.

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How to transfer photos from one rhyme to another?

    how to transfer photos from one rhyme to another?

    Can you connect the phone to the computer as a disk drive using the usb cable supplied with the phone? Copy the files from the first phone. Disconnect it properly. Connect the second phone in the same manner. This time copy the files from the computer to the phone in the same place where you found them on the other phone.

  • How to transfer photos from one make to another

    How to transfer photos from one mac to another wirelessly

    I can give you a few ways to so:
    First (and my favorite way) is the one said above.  First, on the computer with the photos on it, you have to do is turn on file sharing (go to system preferences, sharing, file sharing) and have both computers on the same network.  Second, have the computers you want the photos on, and launch finder.  On the sidebar, there should be a "sharing" category, and below it should be the computer with the photos on it.  Click on it, and you will be prompted for the computer username and password.  It will then show all of the files on your computer.  Then, just find the files, copy them (command-C) and paste them to where you want them! (If this confuses you, I can upload a video step-by-step on how to do this).
    My second way is to use air drop. To start, Both computers must be on the same network.  Then, on the computer with the photos on it select all of the photos you want to send to the other computer (you can select many photos by holding the command key and clicking on photos), right-click (control-click) on the selected photos, find the button share, and click air drop.  On the computer you want the photos on, go to air drop on the side bar.  You should see the name of the computer on the radar-looking screen.  Click your computer.  The photos should begin to download to the downloads folder. (This feature is only compatible with certain computers)

  • How to transfer music from iPhone 3GS to 4s

    I need help on how to transfer music from my old iPhone 3GS to my new iPhone 4s.  Thanks

    Apple's method is you sync the new phone to the same iTunes library you used with the old phone. You do not do a phone-to-phone transfer nor do you transfer items (except iTunes Store purchases ) from a phone to a computer.  Your computer's iTunes is the master and up-to-date repository of your media.
