"I attempted to import .mxf files generated by my Panasonic AG-HPX370 to Final Cut Pro 7 for editing through Log & Transfer, without much luck, FCP 7 refused to accept those Panasonic AG-HPX370 .mxf footage. The Panasonic AG-HPX370 MXF clips are about a concert and a birthday party. I just want to import Panasonic AG-HPX370 MXF to Final Cut Pro for further editing, and then burn them to a DVD using iDVD for saving. These days I've been trying to figure out how to get Final Cut Pro 7 to recognize my Panasonic AG-HPX370 MXF videos, but there is no-go. Can anyone kindly shed some light on this conundrum? Many thanks."
