How to make Fujifilm X-T10 MXF files compatible with Pinnacle Studio?
What's the best workflow for Fujifilm X-T10 MXF video files and Apple's Final Cut Pro X? The workflow would depend greatly on how powerful your Mac system is. If for any reason you are unable to use Fujifilm X-T10 MXF files in Final Cut Pro X fluidly, this tutorial may shed you some light. It explains a way of transcoding Fujifilm X-T10 MXF media to FCP X preferred ProRes 422 codec for a smooth editing workflow on your Mac machine.
"Is there a way to go back to the previous version of Final Cut Pro X? I have serious issues editing Fujifilm X-T10 MXF footage in FCP X after the upgradation to macOS High Sierra and FCP X 10.4. FCP X won't import the Fujifilm X-T10 MXF clips correctly, so they are totally unusable. How can I get a fix for this? Please help."
As far as I know, it is impossible to download older versions of FCP X from Apple, which is annoying in cases like this. Until Apple fixes this the only solution is to somehow transcode the Fujifilm X-T10 MXF footage to another format (e.g. Apple ProRes Codec ) that FCP X will handle well.

Step 2: Click "Profile" to select AVI as output format for use in Pinnacle Studio. For a good editing performance, We would recommend choosing "HD Video" > "HD AVI Video(*.avi)" as target format.

If your computer is powerful enough to handle 4K files, you can choose "4K Video" > "4K AVI Video (*.avi)" as target format for Pinnacle Studio.

Tips: If necessary, you can click "Settings" button to modify video and audio parameters like encoder, resolution, frame rate, bitrate, aspect ratio, sample rate, and audio channels. You can also "Enable 3D Settings" to add 3D effect to your source media.

Step 3: Start file conversion for Pinnacle Studio. Click "Convert" to start Fujifilm X-T10 MXF to Pinnacle Studio conversion. As soon as the conversion is complete, click "Open Folder" to get the generated AVI files for editing in Pinnacle Studio with optimum performance. Hope it helps.
