Re: Rewrap XDCAM mxf files to Quicktime mov container

No. It's not that simple. The header is different from MXF to MOV. The renaming can,t work.

Need other options... anyone?

What can I do? I don't want to buy a Mac and FCP just to rewrap the files to quicktime.
FFMPEG can do this. You can also find a GUI for it in case the command line interface is too cumbersome.

Thanks Chris. I just found another command line tool that does exactly that too, FFMBC. Works great!
