Canon XF-305 (mxf to avi) Pinnacle Studio 14

Hi.

I'm working in Pinnacle Studio 14 that doesn't support mxf-files.

Any good software that convert the clips into a format that
Studio 14 support?

I bought Aunsoft which seams to be a good converter with many different
formats. I convert my mxf into h.264, any other idea from someone?

A lot of those "converters" are not lossless. They're meant to convert file format for viewing, not editing. h.264 especially is a tightless compress format so a lot of informations that were there are being thrown away. Not a good idea to put them through an editing pipeline. The only one I know of that are meant for editing is Cineform, but it's not cheap and not compatible with Pinnacle.
