Yes. But since this came from Unity, you have to somehow make some changes.
So "X:/Avid MediaFiles/MXF/Avid1.1" might become "X:/Avid
MediaFiles/MXF/11", "Avid2.1" might become "21", etc.
I disagree with Terry about moving up one step in the tree. That only
applied to OMF.

You can go up all the way, at least to 99, pretty sure I went with 999 at
some point. Don't go for 1.1 or 1.2. Probably won't work.
In my experience, when the databases are OK, you can even keep the "Avid1.1"
designation, and use those folders in a local storage setup, but you won't
be able to rebuild databases in these folders. Better to rename them.
