Import of MXF files cuts off at 30 seconds.

I am having trouble importing MXF files, the import cuts off at 30sec. I cannot import clips that are longer than 30sec. because FCPX cuts them off after 30sec. What am I doing wrong?

What kind of MXF?  What camera shot the footage?

  • I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

    at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
    Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
    All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

  • I am trying to import for Sony RAW .mxf files in AE. I get an error message, cannot be imported - this.mxf file is damages or unsupported.

    I am on a PC. AE version 12.1.0.168. It is updated.
    Does anyone know how to solve this problem. We are working on a feature film shot on Sony F55 in 4K RAW.

    Thanks. Now it works in PP and AE.

    First, your AE needs to be updated. The current version is 12.2.1.5
    If that does not fix the problem let us know.
    Second question, are you using the Sony import utility? If not, give that a try. Last question, can you open the files in Premiere Pro? I hope you are not trying to cut a feature film in After Effects.

  • Is the prores file that FCPx creates when importing c300 .mxf files stable/quality enough to then copy to other drives for further use? Are there any quality disadvantages to doing that?

    Im wondering if I can directly copy the prores files fcpx creates when importing c300 .mxf files from the "original media" folder, reimport them for another project to and use them that way. Is there any problem with working that way? I'm doing this bc I want to have an organize finder structure for a client but cant break the c300 card structure to split clips on a card into different "scenes" to make it easier for them to understand what they're looking at. This is all to stay NLE nuetral--we like fcpx but they might want to edit somewhere else and more details in the finder level seems like the best solution? Suggestions on any of that? Thanks.

    Thanks for your response. Are you sure that FCPx is working with .mxf/c300 natively? I thought it was just a background sort of repackaging or transcode into prores that it does without you having a choice? And bc of that, for me, it's sort of a "back end" feeling file: I'm curious if it's bad to get into the package contents folder to copy it over? Not about copying prores in general-- specifically, is the prores created of c300 footage in fcpx more of a fcpx, high quality alias file? Maybe I'm just feeling a little uncomfortable grabbing things from the inside/finder level of fcpx.

  • TS4357 The song I downloaded cuts off about 3 seconds before the ending, I have tried re-downloding per apple support directions with the same results. What further actions may I take to fix this issue?

    The song I downloaded (Slayer, Criminally Isane) cuts off about 3 seconds before the ending, I have tried re-downloding per apple support directions with the same results. What further actions may I take to fix this issue?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • Purchased songs cut off about 30 seconds in?

    Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? I purchased an album and the first 2 songs cut off about 30 seconds in. The full lengths of the tracks are listed, but they just cut off.
    Any ideas?

    Does this only happen with the tracks you have downloaded from the iTunes Store?  Perhaps you should work the suggestions in this Apple support document first.

  • Importing Avid MXF Files to short in Premiere CC

    Hi there,
    We are importing AVID Media Files MXF from MXF Folder into Premiere Pro CC 2014 and the longer clips are to short. All the long clips ends at 4min. 55 sec.
    We were exporting the Files from AVID 8.3.0 as AFF, then importing in Premiere CC 2014 and linking the video files to the MXF Folder of AVID.
    We tried also to consolidate all the clips from AVID again into a special folder, make a new AFF export and then import and link all again. But it gives us the same result.
    Would be great if anybody knows a solution. The problem seems to be the import of the MFX Files into Premiere CC. The Export from Avid seems to be OK.
    Regards
    Army

    As Apple Inc.’s desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers, OS X Mountain Lion (version 10.8) is the ninth major release of OS X. It’s quick, familiar, cheap, and drenched in iOS goodness. However, after updated and installed Mountain Lion on Mac, many Final Cut Pro (mainly FCP X and FCP 7) users found they could not import mts, mxf, ect files into FCP anymore.
    You can try to redownload and reinstall the FCPX. If not, you can contact after-sales service to get a free way to solve the problem.
    You also can ignore the problem and download and insatll a MXF Converter to convert MXF to FCP's antive format ProRes before importing. I have been using Brorsoft MXF Converter for Mac, it work fast and it can keep the original video quality for editing. Besides, the conversion process will help you to save the rendering time. The most important is that it has five types of Apple prores codecs for choosing.

  • Imported image sequences get cut off half-way through

    Hi there! I'm trying to import an image sequence (jpeg) into Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1 and having trouble getting the clip to play in entirety. My sequence is 24 fps and the footage I'm bringing in is a 5-second piece interpreted at 12 fps. (It was shot at 12 fps via Dragonframe software, on 1's). Unfortunately, the clip gets cut off half-way through. If I play it at 24 fps it's all there but much too short of course, and the wrong speed. If I play it back at 12 fps, only the first half or so of it shows up. All the files are numbered correctly, so there shouldn't be a cut-off. I feel like this might be some obvious problem, but google-and-forum searches have yielded nary a result. Anyone run into this or be able to tell me what I'm doing wrong?
    Background info: I'm on a Dell Inspiron 1525, Windows Vista, 32-bit operating system, using Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1, importing jpegs as an image sequence/numbered stills. Not running any other software, codecs, playback engines etc. to my knowledge.
    Many thanks!

    Thanks, John and Jim.
    I went in to change the Indeterminate Media Timebase to 12, but there's no such number option in CS4. The lowest is 23.9-something, and 24 is the next one up. After bringing the sequence in and playing it in the little preview box in the upper left-hand corner, everything's there, but bringing it into the time-line cuts it off. Is this a glitch? Any other known ways around it? Worst comes to worst I guess would be importing the sequence in two halves.

  • Export to text file cuts off data...

    I have a report that contains fixed width formuals that are in a text box.  The data is 496 char wide.  It will preview fine in a small font - but when I export to a text file it re-sizes the font to courer new 10 and cuts off data after 80 char.  Any ideas?

  • Illustrator file cut off?

    converted a CC trial file to open in other versions of illustrator, but the file does not contain all my work/images and is instead cut off. what do i do?

    what do you mean "converted" did you save down to your current version?
    sounds like you didn't and what you opened was a pdf version of your work.
    select all and unmask it (cmd+option+7). the cutoff work might show up. effects and maybe gradients will be expanded.
    otherwise you need to get your hands on cc and make sure you downsave correctly.

  • CS6 fails to import Canon .mxf files. In CS5.5 it works always great.

    On CS6.01 I can not import Canon mxf video footage. There is always import failure message window. Same result if I copied CF Card to Hard disc.
    On CS5.5 it works always great. I have both premiere versions on same computer:
    Camera: Canon XF100
    Size: 1440 x 1080
    Framerate: 25,00
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate

    On CS5.5 it works always fine, no problem! Same result on my notebook, I installed both versions CS5.5 and CS6.01, on CS6.01 it never works.
    Any idea?

    CS5.x is obsolete software and is no longer supported by Adobe ever since CS6 was released.  The last version of the Camera Raw plug-in to run with CS5.x was ACR 6.7.1. There will be no further updates for CS5.x.
    You need to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.8 on each batch of raw files that cannot be opened in ACR 6.7.1.

  • Audio in .mp4 file cuts off

    The audio in the mp4 file I am trying to use gets cut off. It plays 95% of it, but for some reason cuts the audio off towards the end. I have checked the file on both a PC and Mac and on both the audio shows fine, but when I open it on my computer (Mac) it is cut off. I have tried a clean install of AE CC 14 and that did not help.

    MP4's and compressed audio may or may not play well with different machines. It's the nature of a format that is CPU intensive and decodes the file in blocks.
    If you start with a frame based source that has a standard uncompressed audio track the changes of having a successful render of your mp4 is much higher, but still not 100% guaranteed.

  • Exported files cut off early

    Hi
    Im exporting several files from Final Cut Pro HD, in DV format 48KHz PAL (although this problem occurs on any file type I export). When the exported files are viewed in Quicktime the look and run fine. However, if I am viewing the files in any other media player, such as VLC or Windows Media Player, then the ends of the file get cut off short.
    Is this a common problem, is there a solution or something I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks

    Sounds like either the WAB is not set to the full Duration of the Timeline, or there has been an accidental Out Point set on the Timeline.
    For the first, hit the \ (Backslash key) to zoom the Timeline to min. and then Dbl-click the little square in the middle of the WAB (Work Area Bar) to expand it to the max.
    For the second, look at the Timeline ruler, near the end, and let us know if it is a different shade of gray, in that last 10 sec.
    Good luck,

  • Files cutting off

    My computer sometimes shows a window that says "Please Locate" and then gives a long file directory to a specific file its loking for. Problem is, these files are so deep in the file hierarchy that my window cannot show the entire file hierarchy, and I can't see the file it's looking for, 'cause it gets cut off. How do I fix this?

    I have never seen any mention of the type of message that you are describing. I am also quite curious about the cause.
    One thing that you might try the next time you get such a message is to look in your system.log and console.log files. There might be a message issued in one of those files at the time that you get the message on the screen. These two files are available via the Console app in the Utilities menu. Click the logs icon at the upper left and you will be able to select one log or the other.

  • Imported Sony MXF files are only 3 frames long.

    I recently got a new system with Win7, CS4, and Matrox Axio LE.  I have the latest Axio utilities installed and I installed the 4.2 version of Premiere Pro.  I also installed the Sony XDCAM drivers for the PDW-U1 disc reader and the proxy videos play fine.
    I have imported the same MXF files on an older, slower, less RAM, XP PRO system using CS3 without any problems.
    The video was shot with a Sony PDW-F355 XDCAM HD at 35Mbit.  
    I'm curious if I'm missing a codec, driver, or something similar.  I did get a "DirectShow" error at one point.
    If anyone has any ideas, even ridiculous ones, I'm willing try anything.
    Thanks.

    Squared 5 info:

    The above is free and can do a lot of video transcoding.
    "Progressive footage do you mean 1080p? "
    Yes that's correct.
    Interlaced means 2 fields of video working together to display one frame.
    The TV/Monitor scans lines 1,3,5,7,9 and so on for the first field then 2,4,6,8 for the next to create the frame.
    Progressive displays one frame without this interlacing.
    At 1080 you must use Interlaced eg. 1920 x 1080i.
    Quicktime itself is like a container that holds stuff, think of a tin can and you decide what to put in there.
    Quicktime holds lots of differing types of CoDecs (Compression/Decompression).
    Codecs conform to exact standards and FCE understands some of them.
    That's why whatever you use or transcode a file to, must conform to an FCE Easy Setup so it works seamlessly.
