Sony has a tool that converts MP4 wrapped XDCAM files to MOV wrapped XDCAM files.
What about the other way round? Any ideas how to convert files WITHOUT actual rendering (just changing the wrapper) ? And.. with rendering?

Sorry to eerybody.. I wrote wrng my question.. I need to convert to mov NOT FROM mov. Anyway.. also this is usefull but it should be a batch.. Having to do it clip by clip makes it useless for production. Finally you need to have final Cut.. Is just a wrapper... Why can't I find a simple tool standalone to do it?

Please restate the question then.
JVC can create an XDCAM EX MOV and apparently you want to change that to MP4 and that's what you apparently asked.
If you want a "universal" master you should be recording in MP4 (BPAV) which can be
1) used as is
2) wrapped to MXF Using Sony ClipBrowser
3) wrapped to MOV Using Sony XDCAM Transfer
To wrap MOV to MP4
Final Cut Pro does this (Mac only)
MOV to MXF
Convergent Design has a utility (Mac only)
To use XDCAM MOV on non Final Cut Pro systems (Mac or Windows)
Calibrated Software has plugins for this

Convergent Desing utility is very good.. allows batch and is fast... the only problem is that it creates 2 wrong mono tracks (with noise pulses and no sound) inside. The MXF created with FC are (if you put the right settings) correct on audio. Does somebody know how to correct the audio in Convergent Design's utility ?

Hi Marcello,
It seems that you are trying to re-wrap clips with stereo audio.
I think there is a limitation somewhere.
Probably you will need to set your stereo as Two Mono channels.
