Issues loading YI M1 MXF files into Pinnacle Studio

Since updated to macOS High Sierra, lots of FCP X users have serious troubles dealing with MXF files from YI M1 and other camcorders. Is there any possibilities to solve these problems? In this article, we explain a workaround to transcode YI M1 MXF footage for easier use in Apple's Final Cut Pro X.


"Is there a way to go back to the previous version of Final Cut Pro X? I have serious issues editing YI M1 MXF footage in FCP X after the upgradation to macOS High Sierra and FCP X 10.4. FCP X won't import the YI M1 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 YI M1 MXF footage to another format (e.g. Apple ProRes Codec ) that FCP X will handle well.
