Upgrade to version 4. That is what Mix and Match is all about. Jef

[quote user="Salahadeen"] I see. That is a very informative post and I did not realize that. That being the case, if my quicktime is RGB, is there anyway to edit in RGB rather than 601? [/quote] No, not in Avid. But importing with the correct settings does not degrade the image. It just maps colors and levels to the way Avid works. What type

Not sure if you can solve your problem inside Avid. Now in Photos shop you can use what are called either droplets or actions (not sure of the name) which can let you automate a large number of actions. Opening a file and resaving as .tiff would be the case here. That might be the best way if you have photoshop. Good luck, Jef

I agree with Terry. Really take a look at Terrablcock. We share media between projects with both MC, Symphony and DS. I know that there are smoke users using Terrablock. I do not think you will be able to natively use MXF in smoke, could be wrong there. Jef

BLKBOG, I vote fully with EyeBee. Bug or feature request I will not argue. Even though I would like to. But, my clients have need of the centered option described. The workaround is only slighty better than doing this manually. Which for long form makes it very expensive. So if there is any weight in more voices, here is mine. EDIT: While this problem

[quote user="Dom Q. Silverio"] A 3rd party company made a DNxHD version of the Ki Pro Here. [/quote] Great info. Thanks for sharing. As to chips needed to encode DNX, the EVS systems do field DNX recording. They use an OEM video IO (DVS if I have my info correct). And you do not a special chip to encode DNX if you are just using a Mojo DX

Yes, get to DNX. Look at MPEG Streamclip to help do the conversions. Not sure it will help on all, but it will with h.264. Jef

Many systems use DNX as a recording codec. EVS and the BBC open source project for example. See my thread pleading with Avid to do a deal with AJA to get DNX on the KIA Pro. (A lost cause I believe). I feel they should treat licensing DNX recording as a loss leader. Get more people editing on Avid. Jef

No problem ..... I thought I was missing something basic ... Cheers, Jef

Not sure I see where you are going with this. Why would AJA want to decode DNX? The Kia Pro is a recoreding device. It encodes with the ProRes codec. Am I missing something in your comments? Cheers, Jef
