Q:"I created some video files (MXF) with my new Canon XC10. It creates very nice video, i can encode footage with MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 and save the files in MXF container format. But, Final Cut Pro X which for some reason has some difficulty with them (MXF format is FCP friendly but H.264 codec is not natively supported by Final Cut Pro 7 or FCP X - the H.264 encoded contents are highly compressed, for delivery only not editing.). Any insight is greatly appreciated."
