I think I'm having deja vu all over again. We have requested a test clip but time will tell if we get one. At least I know XAVC S is a problem but I was able to use Adobe Media Encoder on a show we did to get it into Avid but who needs the hassle?

Subject: [Avid-L2] Sony A7 camera recording formats?
I'm told our series will be shooting standups with a Sony A7. From checking the specs I see the recording formats are:
- AVCHD: MPEG-4 AVC/H.264
- MP4: MPEG-4 AVC/H.264
- XAVC S: MPEG-4 AVC/H.264
The camera person suggested mpeg 4 when we told him XAVC S doesn't play nice with Avid. He then mentioned AVC I. I take that to mean AVC- Intra. I assume that would be the AVCHD: MPEG-4 AVC/H.264. My gut tells me the AVCHD format would be the best choice but my gut isn't a savvy cameraperson. Anybody got a suggestion for recording format. These are standups so it's not going to be a lot of material so file size doesn't matter.
Seems to me the choice is between MP4 or AVCHD. Both seem to be MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 so what is the difference? Is AVCHD an Intra frame Codec and the other long GOP?
