Summary: A step-by-step guide on how to extract and convert the MXF files from a HD camcorder card to mpeg or other formats using the Videolan VLC media player for the use of uploading them to YouTube, for example.

If someone gave me the choice of picking just one media player to take to a deserted island, I would most definitely plonk for VideoLan’s VLC Media Player. VLC, the free media player popular for its capability to play most media formats(MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg…) While, no-one seems to know much how to import and play MXF files in VLC Media Player?

[size0]But Can VLC play MXF files directly?

MXF format is one of the supported file types of VLC, so once you have VLC Media Player installed on your computer just drag your MXF file over top of the main program window to get it to play.

Important Note: Though as it claimed, VLC Media Player supports MXF format, there are still groups of people complain of the imported with low video quality or incapability of video playback. Here is an example:
