Q: The Panasonic HVX200 creates .mxf files on its P2 memory, and I thought that these were supported since Vegas 6, and I have, but the .mxf files do not seem drag to the time line. Is it only Sony .mxf files that are supported? – Smith
The footage shot onto a P2 card in DVCPRO (HD) with Panasonic Camcorders such as AG-HVX200, AG-HPX300, etc are normally save as MXF files which are usually known as P2 MXF file for short; however, the P2 MXF file is not naturally supported by some video editing software like Sony Vegas Pro, Windows Movie Maker, etc. When importing the P2 MXF files to these programs for editing, you probably will meet some troubles as above user.
