Vlc
Hi Robin,
I think you need the plug-in for playback CD quick time files. If you don't have FCP installed, try playing it with VLC player for MAC VLC media player for Mac OS X hope that helps |

Viewing clips
Quote:
The alternative is to use the XD Decode codec from Calibrated Software - it's not free but a LOT cheaper than FCP. We use this along with the free Sony XDCAM Transfer software to browse and view clips very effectively on a mac. Note: Final Cut express does NOT have codec support for XDCAM HD and therefore won't work with nanoflash clips. Dave |

Dito!
From CD pdf file: Viewing Options Recorded file format is set in System->File Format, as Quicktime (MOV), MXF, or MPG. In general, Quicktime has wider compatibility on the Mac, MXF on the Pc. To view nanoFlash Quicktime files on the Mac: > from Quicktime Player with Final Cut Pro 6.0.3 or better installed. (HD/SD files) > If Final Cut Pro is not installed: from Quicktime Player with Calibrated Software's XD Decode (HD files): Calibrated{Q} XD Decode To view nanoFlash Quicktime files on the Pc: > from Quicktime Player with Calibrated Software's XD Decode (HD files) : Calibrated{Q} XD Decode > from Quicktime Player with Calibrated Software's IMX Decode (SD files) : Calibrated{Q} IMX Decode To view nanoFlash MXF files on the Mac: > Sony XDCAM Transfer software combined with Final Cut Pro 6.0.3+ or Calibrated XD Decode: https://servicesplus.us.sony.biz/son...el-PDZKP1.aspx Calibrated{Q} XD Decode > VLC Media Player: VLC media player - Open Source Multimedia Framework and Player > MXF4Mac (also for editing in Final Cut Pro) : MXF4mac - MXF solutions for Mac OS X To view nanoFlash MXF files on the Pc: > Free Sony XDCAM Viewer software: https://servicesplus.us.sony.biz/son...?model=PDZVX10 > VLC Media Player: VLC media player - Open Source Multimedia Framework and Player > Open Cube: http://www.opencubetech.com/ nanoFlash MXF files (50 Mbit only) are also now compatible with XDCAM Optical Equipment. The “Free” naming convention may need to be set on the XDCAM equipment to accept nanoFlash files. Note: XDCAM Optical equipment will only import files greater than 2 seconds in length. NanoFlash SD files are now also compatible with XDCAM Optical (ver1.5.31). To view MPG files on the Mac: use VLC Media Player or Quicktime Player. To view MPG files on the Pc: use VLC Media Player. |

Yes thats true..
Actually the footage/clips seems to play back a bit jumpy.. 50Mbps.. long GOP QT 1080i/25p.. maybe the processor in my mac book is just too slow for big files? |

Dear Robin,
Are you playing them off a CompactFlash card? If so, are you using a USB 2.0 Card Reader or a faster model? Have you copied the files to your internal hard disk? Are you playing the files off an external hard disk connected via a USB 2.0 connection? In other words, where are the files? How is the device connected to your MacBook? What program are you using to play the files? What do you mean by 1080i/1080p? With more details we can be in a better position to assist you.
