All of my Sony cameras, and I have had many including the current crop use the standard DCIM folder structure and the ingest programs I have used work fine. Specifically what is the problem you are experiencing.
I use Capture One, by the way and as long as C1 is open, the second I pop a memory card into the computer or connect the camera to the coputer, the ingestion module starts automatically and I can then proceed or do any kind of operation with regards to location, tagging, etc, that I want.

At the moment I am still trying to work without going back to C1. So hopefully I can find a solution without going back to C1. I guess I'm trying to ingest files(both still & Movie) from a card into my hard drives without using a cataloging program that wants to read previews. I'm now looking at Graphic Converter but again it seems like it wants to do too much browser, editor, etc.. I really want to ingest with a barebones software that's double checking validity of the files being transferred.
On a side note: when you move files from one hard drive to another are you using anything to double check the transfer?
Thanks again for taking the time to respond
I wonder if something like Breeze Systems - Downloader Pro (

I use Breeze Downloader Pro and don't believe it can find/download Sony video files from memory cards.
The only app I know that does this - or at least used to, as I haven't used it in some time - is the Sony Imaging Edge app for desktop and mobile.

All of the Breeze products are Canikon specific.

You shouldn't need to because both Windows and MacOS do a parity check as part of the transfer and if there is any discrepancy it will report a failed transfer.
