Sony XDCAM EX camera Rolls are on a drive in BPAV folders. Inside each BPAV folder is a CLPR folder and an empty folder called TAKR. The CLPR folder contains the clips, including MP4, .SMI, .PPN, .XML, .BIM. If you only have the BPAV’s, then you’ll have to name all the clips and take a considerable amount of time re-linking eveything back up. So users often creat MOV from BPAV files. Many guys choose to capture and transfer BPAV to MOV or XDCam EX files for FCP editing. Using Log & Transfer straight from the memory card, you may fail to capture footage from BPAV folder for “BPAV” contains unsupported media, (such as XML) or has an invalid directory structure. Some people use XDCAM Transfer, but error often happens.
