Was playing around with the Demo for CS6 and discovered to my dismay that I can't import xdcam .mxf files that I am able to import with CS5.5.  What is up with that?

    Hello

    Here I can only tell you is the most compatible format for After Effects is DNxHD mov.

    For MXF files, it usually can't be edited in some other popular editing software, such as FCP, Avid, Premiere or iMovie, etc.

    So mu advice here is  asking a professional converting tool as a help.

    Wish you a nice day !

    Have you applied the 11.0.2 update? Some of those issues were fixed. Still, it may not work at all. Somehow the powers made a mess of it...

    It is the demo version.  Can I actually update a demo version?  Be that as it may, there is no way I'm purchasing CS6 if I can't import xdcam files.  What is up with Adobe these days?  There is just an endless stream of issues everytime they put out a new version of their software.  XDcam is so ubiquitous in production these days.  How could CS6 not import xdcam files?!!!!  It blows my mind.  Really?
