Re: [FCP-L] Log and Transfer Q

I am presuming your XDCAM clips are XDCAM HD rather than XDCAM EX. The XDCAM HD, like the Avid files, are MXF and are not recognized natively by FCP. So L&T won't work on these files. The Calibrated-Q plug-in will let you recognize MXF files natively. But the XDCAM Transfer utility, as you've discovered, does recognize and import the MXF files.
