Export, preserve, mix, or separate multiple audio tracks in MXF file; MXF to ProRes, MXF to FCP.
To solve the compatible issue of MXF format, Canon has released plug-in for importing MTS files. Canon XF Plug-in takes MXF files from XF305, XF300, XF105 and XF100, allowing MXF footage to be ingested to major editing systems including Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, Avid, and Grass Valley. No matter XF Plug-ins helps or not, CyberLink Power Director, a video editing software application for non-linear video editing, obviously is not included in these major NLE systems.
