Some google searching shows that i'm not alone with this problem, but i haven't found a solution. Canon XF605 4K XF-AVC MXF files plays in Final Cut Pro but not in elements organizer, where i get this error message "The selected files can not be played because your system does not have the required compresser/decompresser (codec) installed". Does the problems lie on codec?"

Canon XF605 allows you to take advantage of the dual SD card slots for dual recording, relay recording, and multiple simultaneous recording options of your footage in MP4 or XF-AVC.
