  <p>Workarounds:</p>
  
  <p>1) Use the Canon XF Utility to create a single MXF file of your spanned clips.
  Import the new file into the project. </p>
  
  <p>2)
  The problem you are facing is that you are probably just copying a single subclip over.
  What you need to do is copy the WHOLE folder over.
  Then use the media browser to find the clip.
  Then import it into your premiere pro and that should work.</p>
