Thanks. I Tried that before posting here.
no luck. The plug in is from 2014 I believe and the os is current. Wonder if that's the issue?
rgardless, I downloaded a trial of premiere, just so I could look at footage And I think I know where this is all going.
still open, if anyone has a solution.
thanks again

that's odd. do you have Pro Video Formats 2.0.4 and the most recent version of your camera's firmware installed? if so, apple would want to know about it. zip and upload a disk image or archive of an original camera card somewhere, and report it to http://www.apple.com/feedback/finalcutpro.html. for tips about sending better feedback, check out http://www.fcpworks.com/submitting-better-fcpx-feedback-to-apple/
