[Avid-L2] Re: AMA Linking to Sony EX3 files

 

Yes, finally I was able to export MXF files with the Sony Clip Browser. Thanks Andi. It is as you say a great program - I just could not figure out how to "interrogate" the files and re-build folder structures as you said. But it's done now. Thanks again.

It's a great little program from before avid could natively handle XDCAM footage but it is still really useful for loads of stuff, including being a great free logging program for people on set. HTH,

In the three other folders only some are online, some offline. What's going on? Is it file corruption? The files were sent to me on a HD, so obviously they were copied. Are the offline files lost or can they be restored somehow? If I have them re-sent to me what should I do to have the cameraman guarantee they are good before they get to me from overseas?
