Cannot Read XDCAM EX files - something new.

Hello,

having a strange issue with XDCAM EX files from one of my shoots.
everything's been shot and transferred to a hard drive.

XDCAM Transfer doesn't recognize any clips
XDCAM Browser can be used to view clips but not copy. error message says: Failed to copy the clip. Reason: [file name] contains a folder that is not managed by Clip Broser.

Avid Media Composer doesn't recognize the files through AMA or Import.

Copied files to another drive - no effect.

Surprisingly though, Adobe Premiere seems to work.

Files from other projects work just fine.

Any idea of what's going on?
Thanks!
Alec.
