Flash XDR User’s Manual
NLE Support
Note: All recorded bit rates 50 Mbps and above will typically appear in NLE's with a 50 Mbps label.
However, all files are decoded / played out from their actual recorded bit rate. At this time, rendering /
re-encoding of edited footage from the timeline is always forced to 50 Mbps (within NLE's which
support re-encoding of edited footage), regardless of the bit rate of the originally captured video. Also
note that support for true frame rates (true 24, 30, 60) is limited in most NLE's. (ver1.5.25)
Final Cut Pro (6.0.3 or better)
FCP supports decode/ playback of all Flash XDR files generated as QT files. A timeline may be
created for the Flash XDR files (50 Mbps and greater) in Final Cut Pro under the Easy Setup
“XDCAM HD 422”. Rendering / re-encoding (to 50 Mbps only) is also supported.
See tips below for editing shortcuts with Final Cut Pro and Long-GOP MPEG2.
