'Redcine-X dosent make MXF (as of now)'

Sorry Dave, that is incorrect.
REDCine-X Build 183, available for almost 2 weeks now, does create MXF Avid files on both MAC and PC.

Main difference I saw was the ability to pre-correct and manipulate footage in Redcine-X. Make sure you test first which version of Avid codecs and Redcine-X work well together.... we had different combinations work on different systems. Processing on an 8400 was a bit slower than Metafuze, but not too signifigant. Redcine-X dosent make MXF (as of now), you go to DnXHD QT and import those. Adds a time-consuming step over Metafuze, but you do buy it back in pre-processed footage. I had to choose Metafuze for my last project, as it had a fast turnaround and they wanted ALL the footage (190Gb) for the edit.

Nobody really cared when I pointed out the David Lean cut Lawrence of "Arabia" from the buys and safetys.....

Any major quality difference between using Metafuze and RedCine to make these DNxHD files? I'm testing RedCine on my PC now to compare quality. Checking speed as well.
