Re: [Avid-L2] Arri Alexa file format question

That's not the Red camera extension. That's just Arri file naming. I have
a folder of Arri files that look like this:

A010C001_120523_R1SM.mov

Another folder from a second Alexa is:

A003C001_120523_R21C.mov

I believe it the last four numbers/letters are related to the camera,
possibly?

Red files would look like:

A011_C001_0312KR_001.R3D
