I have a Panasonic camera, model AG-HVX200. The camera is compatible with DVCPRO HD, DVCPRO50, DVCPRO25 and consumer DV recording standards. I shot some MXF files with HVX200 on DVCPRO settings for 4x3 aspect ratio. Now when I use log and transfert to import these MXF files into FCP6, a few MXF footage have some bad interlacing. When I view the MXF files in the capture window, they do not appear to have interlacing issues. Later I realize that capture window only shows a deinterlaced image, so any interlacing issues would not be apparent there. However, the problem is still there.
I look for some useful workaround to convert and deinterlace HVX200 MXF to ProRes MOV. Some guy suggest me use Aunsoft TransMXF Pro for Mac, a MXF conversion program that is better than FCP to convert MXF to ProRes MOV and simultaneously remove interlaces. What's more, this powerful MXF to FCP Converter is really a master to preserve and separate multiple audio tracks in MXF file, which can convert MXF to multiple audio tracks ProRes 422, ProRes 422 LT, ProRes 422 HQ, ProRes 4444 for FCP.
Here I would like to share the brif workflow to convert and deinterlace HVX200 MXF to ProRes MOV for FCP.
Step1. Accurately load MXF to TransMXF Pro for Mac
Click "add video" or "add folder" to load MXF file. Here I directly drag MXF to the HVX200 MXF Converter, fast. This program also supports batch conversion.
In order to avoid of no audio in source MXF file, you'd better to preview loaded MXF files in the preview window to guarantee the output encoded MOV files will also be with sound. You can capture MXF images easily with Snapshot function when preview MXF file.
Check "Merge into one file", you can join MXF clips into one big file.
Step2. Choose ProRes 422 HQ MOV as output format
Click "format" and under the FCP menu, you can quickly pick ProRes 422 HQ MOV. You can also enter FCP in the search bar directly.
ProRes 422 is most suggested option for FCP. ProRes 422 HQ is recommended here for offering even greater headroom to preserve the quality of even the most demanding.
Step3. Deinterlace Panasonic HVX200 1080i MXF files
Click “Editor” button and then click "Effect". Tick the checkbox of "Deinterlacing" to deinterlace HVX200 1080i MXF files before converting. In this way, the ProRes MOV generated from raw MXF files will be viewed flawlessly in FCP. Here you are allowed to crop unwanted video parts, trim video length and add some special effects. You can preview the raw MXF and output MOV videos simultaneously here.
You can also customize profile of output MOV via click "settings" in the main interface to reset video bitrates, video frame rate, video size, audio channels, etc.
Step4: Convert MXF files into ProRes MOV
Click "Start Conversion" icon, The HVX200 MXF to FCP Converter will convert MXF to ProRes 422 HQ MOV for FCP. After MXF to ProRes 422 conversion, you will be able to get the output files via clicking on "Open" button and then view and play converted HVX200 MXF in FCP without bad interlacing.
What's more, TransMXF Pro for Mac has the capability to convert/transcode/rewrap MXF file to multiple audio tracks with MOV, MKV, MP4, as well as tons of common output video formats, such as MKV, FLV, WMV, AVI, MPEG, etc, which ever expand the MXF applied range.
