When I tried to convert using the "Convert/Stream" menu item, the output was very short and the audio was completely garbled. VLC seems to be transcoding it when I use the "Streaming/Exporting Wizard.". I was able to get the files to play with VLC by opening the AVCHD package contents in the Finder, then opening the BDMV package contents, and then opening the individual. I thought I was going crazy until I tried the same thing on files I had successfully used last year, and they now have the same problem (no audio on import to FCP, won't play with QT or MPEG Streamclip). Quicktime and MPEG Streamclip both died when trying to play the files, and FCP would not get any audio when importing. I have a similar problem with files on an SD card from a Panasonic camera (AG-C90 AP) in AVCHD I came across this thread and think it's the same issue since I've only got one active channel of audio. I tweeted Mark and Steve Ripple Training and they couldn't figure out the reason, so I'm hoping someone here has an answer. FCPX just doesn't recognize it when I import through the P2 reader. MXF files from the AUDIO and VIDEO folders (and there's several files/clip/channel because that's how it records) and when I do that I can see the individual channels. I can open the P2 card in the Finder, go into the Contents folder and manually drag all the. I import the card into Premiere and all 4 individual channels are there (see image below). Yes, I've expanded into the audio components in the project and it shows the same as in the inspector. I've had shoots where there were 2 lav mics (Ch1, Ch2) and Ch3/4 are the camera's internal mic.but when importing, all 4 mono channels are Ch1. Four channels import, but all four are actually Channel 1 (lav mic). I have a Panasonic HPX-250 and record on micro P2 cards. Hopes this helps and that the bug-fix will come sooner than later. What I did was I threw them into a Storyline, found the other tracks by timecode instead of name and exported it.īefore exporting, you need to change the Audio Roles for each track to make them "Dialogue-1, -2, -3, -4".

If you want to, you can export as a Multitrack MOV, and bring it back in as a flattened file with all the audios.

The P2 MXF clips are not alpha-numerically arranged, so I sorted by time code and was able to find all the audio channels for all the sub-clips that the P2 created. These can be imported into FCPX, I created a Keyword Collection to keep them grouped. So, CH1is "XXXXX00", CH2 is "XXXXX0"1, CH3 is "XXXXX02" and CH4 is "XXXXX03".

One thing CH1 is the clip with "00" at then end. On the P2 Card, or if you transferred to a hard drive for back up, go into the CONTENTS folder, then the AUDIO folder.Īll the MXF files for your audio will be there. This will take a little digging and some, but it gave me a less painful workaround than other things I tried and I did it all in 10.4. Yes this worked fine in 10.2.X and 10.3.Xīut, the audio channels are on the card. So if you have no audio on channel 1 then the other channels will have no audio. Then, what seems to be happening is that FCPX takes the P2 spanned clips (which are actually separate clips on the P2 cards) and when it stitches them together it only reads CH1 across the span, then it clones that to the other channels. P2 Spans clips (or creates individual sub-clips) when the recording hits that 4.2GB limit. For me any clips longer than 9m36s or larger than 4.2GB are affected.
