Multi-track MXF Converter Review: Convert Multi audio channels MXF to MOV/MP4/MKV
Which is the best Multi-track MXF Converter?

Material Exchange Format, commonly abbreviated to MXF, is a container file format for the exchange of program material between servers, tape streamers and to digital archives. It is an uncompressed format that can bundle together multiple video, audio and program data, which makes a lossless file format with large size. So it is widely used in high definition camcorders like Panasonic P2 Pro AG-HPX600, AG-HPX500, AG-HPX170, AG-HPX171, AG-HVX200, AG-HVX201, AG-HPX300, AG-HPX370/371, AJ-HPX3700, AJ-HPX3000, AJ-HPX3100, AJ-HPX2700, AJ-HPX2000, AJ-HPX2100, etc.

"I have an .MXF video that was recorded with two microphones that play on different channels. I had 2 mics hooked up to my camera. At the beginning of the video {at 4 seconds}, while the person in the video is standing there, a person behind the scenes is asking him a question. Then, when you see the person in the video talking {at 9 seconds} you should hear his voice.

If convert the .MXF file to MP4 and play, you can hear the person behind the scenes ask the question, but not hear the person in the video talking. See my MP4 example. If convert the .MXF file to .MOV and play, you CAN NOT hear the question being asked and can hear the person in the video talking. See my MOV example. If I try to import either video into video editing programs like Pinnalce Studio 15, Sony Vegas, Magix, I only get the one side of the conversation.

So, something seems the conversion process is dropping the other audio. Make more sense now?"

Go to download the powerful Multi-track MXF Converter and get it installed.

1. Import P2 MXF files to MXF Converter.

As all the P2 MXF recordings will be stored in P2 card with a special folder structure. The video and audio are stored in two different folders separately. You will get the video in video folder while all the audio channels in audio folder. So please make sure to keep the video and audio folder structure intact when loading.



Then drag and drop the video into the software directly. Or you can choose to click "Add video" or "Add from folder" button to browse your computer and select the MXF source to import.

3. Adjust output settings and Mix into one channel.

Click "Settings" button to change the video and audio parameters and uncheck the audio channel for output. And every audio channel is checked by default.

4. Start multi audio channels MXF conversion.

Before conversion, you should "Borwse" the path for output files. Now click "Convert" button to start converting multi audio channels P2 MXF to MOV, MP4, MKV and keeping multi audio channels.
