Could someone tell me why Avid always skip the settings when you import an XDCAM HD codec? I mean there is always a way to work around but, when you have to batch some files it's always a bit awkward. Or maybe I'm just missing something in the settings? For example, I've got an interlaced... (read more)

Hi schnitt, what a risk to update during the editing process.. during several years.. Did you save the original AMA-bins?! Hope, the drives weren't reordered, renamed? Hope I can help you with some Infos, as you didn't write about the MC-Versions you used. You should see two Avid Generic plugins... (read more)
