Sony XDCAM
The Sony XDCAM FAM driver must be loaded in order for XDCAM media to work
properly on the NewsEdit station. HD XDCAM clips cannot be viewed prior to
importing. To import, simply drag and drop the HD XDCAM media directly in the
destination bin.
Not all formats of XDCAM fornats are supported, such as 24fs.
View as Tape will not mix and match XDCAM and XDCAM EX media.
