Import Panasonic AG-HPX370 P2 MXF to FCP 6/7 with multi audio channels on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks

To make it easier for editing Panasonic AG-HPX370 P2 multi audio channels MXF videos with Final Cut Pro 6/7 on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks, you need to convert P2 MXF to multi-track ProRes codec first.

Panasonic has announced the immediate availability of the AG-HPX370 P2 HD camcorder, an affordable second-generation, interchangeable lens camcorder with 10-bit, 4:2:2 , independent-frame full 1920 x 1080 resolution AVC-Intra recording.  The AG-HPX370 is a top-level image capture device that also offers a high degree of versatility. It can accommodate both 1/3″ and 2/3″ lenses, it shoots in standard definition as well as HD.

 

AG-HPX370 is a professional camcorder which is able to shoot video clips in MXF format, but the HD experience also brings a problem to the users who want to ingest MXF files from HPX370 P2 card into FCP 6/7. Actually it’s not hard for you you can import Panasonic AG-HPX370 P2 MXF directly into FCP 6/7 as long as you have converted your P2 MXF footage to FCP compatible MOV with ProRes codec.

However, you may got the MXF footage taken by AG-HPX370 camera with several video streams or audio tracks. So for people who want to edit them in FCP 6/7 always want to keep the multiple audio/video track separately as original. Is it possible to solve this big puzzle?
