I have just bought a new Canon XF300 camcorder which produces very good quality video in the MXF format. However, this kind of video seems not favored by QuickTime. I wonder if there’s anyone who can recommend me a program (free or commercial both ok) that can rewrap or transcode my MXF files to the QuickTime, a mac version of any software would be preferred. Thanks so much for any help you guys can provide!
The MXF format is a very complicated container format which is usually used by professional shoulder-mounted camcorders like the Panasonic P2 card camcorders or the Canon camcorder in your case.
