Could someone please help me with these workflow questions? I just read the white paper about the ALEXA DNxHD support and they are suggesting the way to get the MXF media into the Avid is through AMA. For editorial on a commercial that might be great, but for a feature, I don't like that option....

Hey Etienne, I hate to drudge up old problems, while the workaround successfully worked for clients that use a GUI, we can't figure out a way to implement this on a system without the GUI... We have a farm that we'd like to handle this, but they don't even have graphics cards. Any ideas how...

Hello my good Avid folks, I'm about to embark on a feature shot on the Alexa. Based on Arri's announcement last November that the camera can now create MXF files directly (no transcoding!) along with the ARRIRAW files, I'm trying to find out if anyone has gone through this workflow yet? It'd...

Hi all, There's probably a simple solution to this (well, I hope so anyway) - I'm sorting through a large hard drive of old projects, and there are quite a few MXF and OMFI rushes, but they're not linked to any project. I want to see what they are, and get them into a new Avid project - but...

As a Ds Nitris editor i am used to offline and online my self on Ds. With the Red and XDcameras we bought this process has become a lot more complex and time consuming. The Red workflow we solved by cutting my offline on FCP and converting our files with Discreets WiretapCentral to whatever format i...

Hello, I am setting up a workflow where I am transcoding exising files I am receiving from clients to an Avid DNxHD MXF format using a third party piece of software (Digital Rapids). The MXF DNxHD files generated by the Digital Rapids individually wrap the video and each mono audio track with the proper...

Hello there, and thank you for your help, I'm using metafuze on my PC 8core whith the good spec for the machine and RED ONE camera rushes, and with an official avid version. I just wonder WHEN this Metafuze 1.3 or Metafuze 2 will show up and be released. I noticed several huge problems using it,...

Hi All, I've just posted the first of a series of articles I'm doing on why Media Composer continues to be the editing tool of choice for 99% of all professional film editors in Hollywood. I hope you will have a chance to take a look at it and as always, I encourage this community's feedback...
