Sony XDCAM EX (Sony PMW-F3 camera) data structure em= beds each .mp4 file inside a metadata folder unique to each clip. Contrast = to P2 MXF data where all video files reside in a ..CONTENTS\VIDEO folder an= d can be imported as a group.

Importin= g to =A0Pr, the workaround to having to go into each clip=92s personal fold= er is that I can navigate to the root level folder [BPAV], then type =93.mp= 4=94 in the import window=92s SEARCH box, and all .mp4 files will show as a= group and I can then group import them. I just discovered that After Effec= t=92s Import window does not have a SEARCH box.=A0 I=92m not particularly f= ond of having to import one video clip at a time!

Are ther= e any known workarounds to this?
