The component lets you work natively with a wide variety of MXF files, including Sony RAW and X-OCN, Panasonic P2 (with auto-joined audio), AVC-Intra 444, XAVC-L & AVC-LongG, XAVC/AVC-Intra HD/2k/4k, DNxHR & DNxHD, Avid H264 Proxy, AS-02, AS-11, and also supports many other OP1a MXF formats. We've also added support for importing Camera XML Metadata, embedded QuickTime metadata in MXF files, Avid embedded Metadata and Adobe XMP metadata with MXF files into FCP X.

Calibrated{Q} Import Assist is a helper application included with Calibrated{Q} MXF Import. This applications extends your workflow, allowing you to create an XML file which can be imported into Final Cut Pro X as a new FCP X Event that you can start editing instantly. If you'd prefer to edit with .MOV files, use Calibrated{Q} Import Assist to create QuickTime Reference .MOV files or Self-Contained .MOV files from MXF files, complete with embedded Final Cut Pro X & QuickTime metadata in the MOV files. Import Assist lets you re-wrap certain types of MOV files back to OP1a MXF files, and can even re-wrap separate Avid Video/Audio MXF files into one MOV file!
