Scratch the message above - I found an easier way instead: 1. Drag your RED MXF Metafuze files into the C: AvidMediaFiles etc. folder 2. Login to Interplay 3. Use Media Tool and have it search only C drive - choose all projects 4. Your Red clips should appear (even though you didn't import the ALES) 5. I'm pretty sure you'll know what to

Working on the same issue with someone else; it took a few days but I found one workaround so far (long story short = IP's MI enabled service changes the way "regular relink" works --- that's the theory but waiting to confirm with others first) Below is an email I sent off explaining this (apologies for the formatting -- copy / paste

No sweat Hedeen --- I copied/pasted some of it from the first page (my comments about this with Gaijin aka Douglas) "For HDV material, you are correct - you can should be able to go direct from Avid to Avid DVD without problems. The option for Sorenson is open, BUT if the QT ref from Avid (in part 1) looks good enough then you can skip it and go

Hi Abeyta, My understanding is that for HD you'll want to choose 601/707, and for SD projects choose RGB. I've been dealing with a number of blu-ray issues/scenarios since last Feb. and the most trouble I had was burning a BD AND playing it back on a PS3 ---- that was resolved btw, with update on the firmware, and a patch which had to be installed

No problem Ralph, glad you found it helpful (and as always open to other suggestions/input) To answer your query about MAC workflows -- I heard from a colleague who connected a Blu Ray burner to his Mac, and used "Toast" to burn it. I even got to watch the final product on a HD projector So I'm thinking you could do the Avid Media Composer

I'll respond to some of these in a moment, as I'm tied with work here - thanks for all the input thus far

Hi Jeri, From what you're telling me, it seems the DVD burned fine (so nothing to suspect -failure wise- on the burning process) I'm taking a stab, that there might be some firmware needed for that Blu Ray player LG BD370? I encountered a similar thing before when playing back on PS3s, and had to update the firmware to get it working. Otherwise

My baaaaaaad - misread your post, and thought you were talking about some uber feature of "send to DVD using Video Mixdown" MOST interesting, I'll have to try that later - thanks for the tip!

There will be another addition to this, which announces a solution for using Sony EX1 material (since you can't do QT refs with EX1, instead a LongGop error appears) Also, solutions on getting around P2 / interlacing issues
