hi to all

 

i´ve got an question i got problems with importing mxf files!  Liquid is importing it but only video no audio and then some clips are to short as their original length! Any Idea

the mxf file format is XDCAM HD  but it doesn´t come from the disk i got it as an file .mxf

The format of the file is Editing - XDCAM HD 422 i50  (1920x1080, 50Mb/s)

Is it perhaps an codec problem?  i can transcode it with other software but it takes time and i can´t get it why it should not work? Liquid does support xdcam hd or i´m wrong

thanks in advance

Are you using Sony's software to export to MXF? If yes, what version. the latest version, 2.5, does not work correctly with Liquid.

No i´m not talking about using the sony clipbrowser!

I mean we working with a lot of companys which are sending mxf files to edit over server etc.

 and now i got a lot .mxf files from an sony xdcam hd cam but only the .mxf file so if i import that into liquid the video comes up shows 1920x1080 hd format

but no audio always if i open the same files with different software like media composer adobe etc it is with audio and it is a little bit longer then the same file which is imported into liquid.

so in the moment i always have to transcode it bevore i can use it in liquid!

Is there any problem with liquid and xdcam hd or mxf files in generall!

any answer can be helpfull

thanks in advance manu

Hi Manu,

We have done numerous projects using XDCAM HD (35Mb 1440 x 1080) using Xreceive with no problems at all. The proxies were brought in at low res and then automatically conform to the high res when we brought in the high res. Low res audio was a bit glitchy, but low-res video was fine. As soon as the high-res material came in, up came the high-def...  I do remember being really surprised with how well Liquid worked with the XDCAMs. I hope (and pray) that NextGen will build on this work flow and include the new 50Mb formats.

Sorry, but I don't have any experience with the new 1920x1080 50Mb format - we've moved over to EX3's for XDCAM and F23's and '35's for HDCAM/SR....

That's my experience for what it's worth....

Hi DiskTech

So that sounds then that the liquid does not support the new 1920x1080 50Mb over import or x recieve it only can take a limitted length in and only without audio also over xrecieve in this new format it only shows the clip in the timeline if you choose highres material otherwise it works in the viewer but on the timeline only with exclamation mark!

To Support

Is there any chance to get that up and running or have we again to wait on the nextgen? It´s getting really annoying now!

The ex3 .mxf are working but only with clipbrowser software 2.0  and why can´t there be an direct import of that like in adobe or edius ..... 

 

thanks manu
