Appologies, i've just seen you'd already done a load of renaming. Try this, unlink your drive with the DNx media on, add a tape number to the clips (Select all>Right click>Modify>by Source), then mount the corresponding AMA volume, modify those clips with the same tape number and relink to all available drives. See if that works.
