Re: [Avid-L2] Export as source - reimport via AMA - cripppled?

 

You probably have mixed codecs in your timeline. That does not play nice
with 'same as source' (no recompression, avid assumes the wrong codec here
and there)
And why export as Qt if the receiving side is Avid too?
Just make a mixdown, or consolidate, and send the Avid MXF files...
