XDCam HD422 import in Resolve 16/17 not possible?

Hi guys.

I've done a clean install of Resolve 17 on a new Win10 installation.
Everything seems to work except the import of XDCam HD 422 material in the typical C0001, C0002... folder infrastructure.
In every folder there is 1 video-mxf file, 8 audio-mxf files and 1 proxy-mxf file (and I think some unimportant smi, ppn, bim and xml files).
But in the Media workspace of Resolve NO video appears and only the first 4 audios and sometime audio 5 or 6 or 8... no apperent sceme there...
In Resolve 16 the same.
Am I missing something? Codec probably?
I'm fairly new to Resolve :oops:

THX in advance,
Soko

This doesn't seem to be the problem: I sent some of the material to a colleague who has the studio version - he has the same problem/result...

Hi everyone.

I've found the solution (and my fault):
I had copied the material directly from the XDCam disc to my harddrive without having installed a driver for the XDCam drive!
After having installed the driver, correct MXFs were created, where video & audio were encoded in one file. These files are perfectly imported by DaVinci.

So, sorry for bothering. The fault was on my side.

GREETZ,
Soko
