Avid Media Composer provides support for several audio and video formats, making your post-production workflows compatible with the latest broadcast formats. However, when you add video files like XAVC HS to Avid Media Composer, you may come across problems. This article focus on why we have problems using Sony a7 IV, Sony a7S III, Sony FX3, Sony a1, etc XAVC HS files in Media Composer and provides a quick and easy solution.
Avid Media Composer only supports importing MP4 formats with below kinds of MP4:
DNxHD with Alpha, Meridien, MPEG 50, DV, MPEG 4 (H.263), Apple None, Apple Intermediate, DVCPro, PNG*, or other formats that require a QuickTime Codec
Not all kinds of MP4 formats. Some XAVC HS MP4 files from like Sony a7 IV, Sony a7S III, Sony FX3, Sony a1 and other Mirrorless Cameras cannot be accepted by Avid Media Composer.
To use XAVC HS .mp4 video in Media Composer smoothly, a good suggestion is to either change the XAVC HS clips to something Avid Media Composer could natively handle, and a DNxHD codec was usually ideal, or directly turn this XAVC HS video to Avid Media Composer supported MOV format.
