So here is the issue. I have a project that wast started in 4.5 that someone consolidated to an extrenal drive. That same someone then proceeded to delete the project files off the external drive leaving just the avid media files folder with the MXF files inside. Now here we are a year later my facilty...

Hi. I am using Premiere cs5.5 and Avid MC5. I exported AAF from Premiere. I am loading it in Avid and I see the sequence, everything is fine. The media is offline as expected. But I cannot manage to link the offline files to the right files. I tried AMA Volume link, Import and everything. There must... (read more)

I've been working on a massive project and last night I had to import some new video. I went through the same process I had with the others, and after they finished uploading I saved and quit AVID (I didn't check them at the time because it was 3am). When I opened AVID this morning they weren't... (read more)

This is my first time posting. I am currently editing my first film. As a newbie, I imported all of my footage at DNXHD 175x. Needless to say it took up a LOT of space. I already have clips synced with audio and multiple sequences fleshed out. In order to save space, I wanted to know if there was a way... (read more)

Ok, I have a problem. I have a sequence of clips edited with MC 5.5.3. The footage is Sony EX via AMA. Now that MC6 don't want to play with Sony EX AMA files, I transcoded the original AMA files into MXF media with Sony Clip Browser. I imported MXF files into MC6. When I try to relink my seqeuence...

Hey all, I'm working on a project, which was shot with the red and now we notice, that we have to reimport some shots. Some of the shots are too bright, so that some skies are just white, and we can't get any information out of it with the avid colorcorrection. later these shots will be corrected... (read more)

It is very simple but may come useful. When you have moved some clips that you have linked by AMA at another location/disk and you get the Media Offline (which is normal), after restarting, do not relink the clips but AMA link them again to the new destination. The clips will be relinked and the sequence... (read more)

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I couldn't seem to find a Newscutter specific forum, but i'm hoping the workflow here is the same for MC. I have a version 9 Newscutter in a multi-Avid machine/Interplay environment. in interplay, media has been deleated that was originally consolidated from... (read more)

Hi All I am sitting with an odd ball! We went off to Toronto and shot an event using xdcam. Came back to SA and ingested all the media obviously being mxf. Our offline editors system (quite old) could only see omf. So we changed the project to omf and consolidated 15:1 for her to cut with. Now that she's... (read more)

ADD - duck: so now i got the duck. it kind of works, but only about 1/4 of the media appears to be relinkable, in a seemingly random pattern. the rest, it seems, we'll have to batch-import - thus duplicating a good part of the media in order to be able to access the coming-from-FCP timeline. ADD2... (read more)
