Will we have to transcode GoPro Hero5 4K MP4 into another codec to be able to work in FCP X/7/6? GoPro MP4 file type is a compressed output format and not an ideal editing format. What’s more, it also would be a bit hard to handle 4K video with Final Cut Pro 7. To edit Hero5 footage in FCP X/7/6 smoothly, a suggestion is to use UFUWare Video Converter for Mac to transcode GoPro Hero5 MP4 to ProRes, which is a friendly format supported by FCP.
