Q: Problem importing and transcoding in FCP X from Sony 4K

I'm shooting in on a Sont FS5 - file format XAVC QFHD - 2160/24p 100Mbps

About 10% of my files do not import into FCP 10.2.3.

I have tried re-importing from the SD card - this does not work. Missing files show up. I can play them off the card but FCP will not accept them.

The 10% that doesn't work are a random group of 10 clips - in the middle of a chip and appear directly after and before importable clips during continued shooting.

I transcoded them through Catalyst Browser and converted the files to ProRes 422 HQ - and FCP still will not read them.

Any help with how to import these errant files, occurring in multiple chips would be greatly appreciated!

Final Cut Pro X, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
