Tried both methods you describe, Teddy. Unsuccessful with the XDCAM EX folder structure unique to this camera. So it looks like copy/paste is the way to go for now. Thanks, John From: After Effects Mail List [mailto:AE-List@media-motion.tv] On Behalf Of Teddy Gage Just import the whole root folder, ae will grab all the video files. or do "import multiple items" On Mar 23, 2012 3:40 PM, "John Morgan" <John.Morgan@slcc.edu> wrote: I just found something very annoying about Ae, compared to Pr—the import windows are different. Sony XDCAM EX (Sony PMW-F3 camera) data structure embeds 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 and can be imported as a group. Importing to Pr, the workaround to having to go into each clip’s personal folder is that I can navigate to the root level folder [BPAV], then type “.mp4” in the import window’s SEARCH box, and all .mp4 files will show as a group and I can then group import them. I just discovered that After Effect’s Import window does not have a SEARCH box. I’m not particularly fond of having to import one video clip at a time! Are there any known workarounds to this? Thanks, John Obviously, this should be a feature request. J
