Pavtube post how to import MP4 into FCP X on Yosemite
Overview:
"As to MP4, even if FCPX plays it, it just isn't a codec designed for editing. FCP X is built around ProRes and my advice is always to convert MP4 to FCP X ProRes before editing, even the other formats natively supported, as it just improves performance and saves headaches in the long run."
The below are issues about importing MP4 to FCP X on Mac:
Q1: "I need to convert a 2.7k mp4 from a GoPro Hero 3 at 45mb/s to ProRes so I can edit in Final Cut 7. Which software I can use and how can I convert and keep the 45mb/s bit rate??"
Q2: "I've been searching for a solution but everything I've found relating to this doesn't work for me. I have an MP4 (with AVC Coding, 640 x 360, Millions AAC, Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz) that I need to edit in FCP 7.0.3. I always get a message that says "Error: can't prepare the movie." I've tried several different codecs to no avail (Intermediate, DV NTSC, etc.) Any ideas on any other ways to get this converted to an editable format? Thanks!"
Q3: "Hi, I need a tool that can help me to import MP4 footage to Final Cut Pro X for editing, the MP4 files are recorded by Sony camcorder which I bought several days ago, the videos are XAVC-S MP4 files, I was told that FCP X native supported codec is Apple ProRes codec, will this codec help me? Please give me some suggestions on the way to import MP4 to Final Cut Pro X, thanks for your time."
Why can't import MP4 to Final Cut Pro X natively o Yosemite?
In fact, MP4 is a final delivery file type, and is heavily compressed. You need to change the file extentsion from ".mp4" to "a codec" that FCP X can read more easily (without rendering basically). The codec is Apple ProRes, which ensures maximum editing quality and efficiency when working with Final Cut Pro X.
