ffmpeg can reportedly produce XAVC-compatible files (it's just a subset of h.264.)

 

I found:

 

 

# 4K XAVC-I Class 480
ffmpeg -guess_layout_max 0 -i "(input)" -r (framerate) -c:v libx264 -me_method tesa -subq 9 -partitions all -direct-pred auto -psy 0 -b:v 480M -bufsize 480M -level 5.1 -g 0 -keyint_min 0 -x264opts filler -x264opts colorprim=bt709 -x264opts transfer=bt709 -x264opts colormatrix=bt709 -x264opts force-cfr -preset superfast -tune fastdecode -c:a pcm_s24le "(output).mxf"

The only thing that I can think of that might be capable would be Sony's Catalyst software. I haven't used it for a while though, so can't remember if it'll take you from Prores to XAVC.

Had a quick look at the free Cat browse, that I use just for viewing XAVC footage.. doesn't look like you can import Prores to it though.. the pay Cat Prepare might..

 

Sign of the times.. client actually wants XAVC and not Pro res... thanks Fs7..! at last :)
