There have been many people trying to import various types of video files into Final Cut Pro- H.264, MPEG1, Sorenson, AVI etc. Sometimes the clips might sputter through… but often, they’ll redline and not play at all – or even crash the program, and possibly corrupt your project file.

Another DVcreators.net droplet to the rescue! Simply drag almost any video file readable by Quicktime onto this droplet, then have a tasty beverage or read your email, and soon, depending on the length of the video file, you will find, right on your Desktop, a native DV format file.

Import the converted file into a DV timeline and it will play perfectly, no muss, no fuss. This droplet will only work on Macs with Compressor installed.

And, thanks to Guy Cochran of DVeStore, there’s also a version to convert to 16:9 (anamorphic) format.

This droplet is available FREE only to dvcreators.network members: Download the Convert2DV droplet

If you need to convert audio only, see their audio-only droplet.
