HELP! XDCAM TRANSFER - No media !!! From a PMW EX3

Did you select the folder where the XDCAM files are located?

Open two explorer windows, select and drag one clip only from its present location in the top window to a HD/folder in the bottom window. A new BPAV folder containing the mp4 file and associate attachments will be created here. Import this through Sony XDCAM to check if it will work. On import a .mov file is created, located in a folder with the same name as the one containing the original BPAV folder. If you can't locate it, search for it by its original name.
Is XDCAM Transfer compatible with 6.0.1.?

Explorer windows? What are those?

In Clip Browser, Brian - your face indicates you already know....?

Just wanted to make sure I hadn't wandered into the Windows forum.

No, you're in safe hands here. Off to bed, past midnight here.

I have the same problem! And your suggested procedure doesn't work.

Yes, I do have the latest version of XDCAM transfer (2.10) and I've installed Snow Leopard lately.

Before installing SL I've imported around 200 hours and never had a problem... Now I have this "No Image Available" thing and nothing helps!!! It is really annoying, because there's no possibility to import the movie files without clicking several hundred times on an error message.

And then after clicking 100 hundred times on this error message FCP is crashing for sure, but there had been 300 files to import. Now I can restart the whole procedure... this isn't funny!

What to do next?

Hi,
have you read this ? Don't know if this will help.

Thanks for the hint, but it doesn't help... they only say that a lot of people are having the same problem since installing Snow Leopard!

Just a note to the Original question:

I'm trying to import them in to Final Cut Pro 6.0.1

XDCAM EX codecs and support came with FCP 6.0.2.

I have FCP 7, but the import doesn't work right!

Michael was referring to the original post.

You might look at this thread: http://www.dvinfo.net/forum/sony-xdcam-ex-cinealta/344810-snow-leopard-xdcam-tra nsfer.html

Is your clip captured across two cards?
