I have (yet) not received this type of file to process, but I have been informed by colleagues that the 2017 version of Adobe Media Encoder includes a "stitching" feature, so if it is capable of handling this codec then that might be a possibility for transcoding.

If that's the case, (and it seems to be, as far as Google is reliable), would CIneDNG not be the better choice?
(If it's in frame modus…)But, I would prefer just plain ProRes Std. That is 10 bit, and I very much doubt the cam will provide more than ProRes Std can handle.(Next best thing is to do a first light correction on the incredible high data rate files and call that the 'original' source clip. I'm always amazed how much trouble people want to get in, where the time spent on getting these things resolved could be spent elsewhere to get a better overall product. But then again, those people also provide me with an income :-)On 13 Sep 2017, at 02:13, Jim Feeley jfeeley@gmail.com [Avid-L2] <Avid-L2@yahoogroups.com> wrote:The Inspire 2 can record video to h.264, various flavors of ProRes, and CinemaDNG. We ended up with FAT32 files rather than EXFAT (hence, the 4GB file-size limit)... IIRC, the the operator's idea was to force the files to be saved in case the drone crashed or something... ANYWAY...We ended up using the transfer tool Convergent Design makes available for use with their Odyssey field monitor/recorders.https://www.convergent-design.com/all-downloads/category/8-cd-prores-transfer-tool.htmlI don't recall exactly why we used the Convergent instead of something else, don't know if it's the best solution, don't know if it'll work for you. I was the producer, not the drone pilot or editor.But hopefully at least this info may help guide your google searching...or prompt someone else here to chime in with specific information on why I'm a bonehead (an easy task) and how you should really handle this issue (a less easy task).HTH,jim feeleypov mediaword image soundOn Sep 12, 2017, at 4:09 PM, Dan McCabe danlist@bestmail.us [Avid-L2] <Avid-L2@yahoogroups.com> wrote:The files are big. 4.19 gigs for 17 sec.ap4x?

I think someone plays a trick on you.How big are those files?I very much doubt these were created in the sky, so the H264 is as good as it gets.Hi All,I received some footage from a DJI Inspire 2 drone.They are QTs using the "ap4x" codec. They are in individual folderswhich represent one shot with individual clips segmented into 17 secondchunks.Any tips as to the best way to handle them? Is there a utility thatstitches these back together if I am going to transcode?I was also given H.264 proxies which are the same 4k size but in H.264.I am considering working with those and then sorting out the shots laterfor the online.TIA for any advice,Dan
