MXF Metadata in QuickTime







Overview

This chapter describes where Calibrated{Q} MXF Import adds various parts of the Camera MetaData of the MXF file into
QuickTime MetaData (QTMetaDataRef). The Public

QuickTime MetaData can be seen in the “Show Movie Properties”

function when using QuickTime Player Pro 7.6 in Windows or Mac OSX. The Public or Private QuickTime MetaData is
not automatically mapped into Final Cut Pro or other applications.

Calibrated{Q} Import Assist uses the Private MetaData in constructing FCP XML files

– please see the

Calibrated{Q} Import Assist User Guide for more details.
