I don't know the machine, but your logic seems right as it is only passing
of data, Avid will do the encoding.
But how good is the price? If the device is slow, you get annoyed. A PDW U1
is not that expensive and does the job fine.
(and, as we already discussed, you can use any digital medium to transfer
the MXF....)
