Import AVCHD footage from my Canon HG10 camcorder to FCPX on Mac OS X Lion

August 3, 2011 admin Old Article

“I have a Canon HG10 that shoots AVCHD high def footage. I’ve always gotten it to import footage into final cut pro 7 and iMovie (before switching to osx lion) Now that I have final cut pro X, I try to add the camcorders files into the import bin and it gives me an error saying the following:

“AVCHD” contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure.
Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media.

I tried the “log and transfer” in the old previous version of final cut pro (which always worked for me before installing lion) and it also gives me an error. Same thing with iMovie now.

Is there some way I can get this to import into final cut pro X? If not, is there any other 3rd party transfer program or any other solution to get my footage onto my hard drive to edit in final cut pro X?”
