Other issues with Resolve/Avid .mxf round trip relinking and playback that I have noticed.
*Resolve version 9 - if a single frame was imported using file import in the Avid. The first frame of the Avid .mxf file is video and the rest is blank. In the Avid and Resolve version 10 seem to be filling in the blank and playing back these .mxf files as a still frame. Resolve version 9, only the first frame will have video when played back.

Other issues/gotchas with Resolve/Avid .mxf round trip relinking and playback that I have noticed with using .mxf round trips..
An Avid collapsed effect - the video on the lowest number track will be pulled only.
Some Avid Fast Import created .mxf files are not supported in Resolve.
I recommend to stay away from using video mixdowns.
spanned c300 files will not playback properly or render properly in Resolve v9 and the current version that I tested of version 10 - for c300 these I handle them by first prepping in the Avid by exporting a quicktime reference file naming the file the same name as the master clip's source found in "Bin Menu>Set Bin Display>Souces". I AMA these and transcode the quicktime reference file so I end up with a pretty exact file that will now link and playback in Resolve.

This method is one of the best inventions I have come up with. It is almost tech support free. All avid media files created from master clips have a "Tape Name" embedded into the .mxf file. Avid will appear to blank "Tape Name" metadata in the Avid Bin if there is metadata populated in the "Source File" column for that master clip.

Similarly, we have been running Interplay successfully for roughly the
same amount of time.

LAS VEGAS, NV, 2014-04-05
Company introduces Avid MediaCentral Platform and major product innovations at NAB 2014, uniquely addressing the strategic needs of broadcast, pro video, and pro audio
NAB (Booth #SU902) Avid® (OTC: AVID) today made several key announcements around Avid Everywhere™, the company's strategic vision for the media and entertainment industry, centered on connecting creative professionals and media organizations with their audiences in more powerful, efficient, collaborative, and profitable ways. The company introduced its new Avid MediaCentral Platform and set of modular application suites that together represent the most open, integrated, and flexible media production and distribution environment in the industry.
"The media industry is going through a period of unprecedented change and needs a leader to step forward with a clear vision for the future," stated Avid President and CEO Louis Hernandez, Jr. "Our Avid Everywhere vision uniquely solves the key issues facing the industry. By getting on the Avid MediaCentral Platform today, broadcast, video, and audio customers can strategically address both their current and future needs, with complete choice over how, when, and where they deploy and scale their solutions."
The new MediaCentral Platform is an open, extensible, and customizable foundation that enables customers to streamline their entire workflow—from media creation to distribution and monetization—with greater flexibility, choice, and security. By fostering an open approach, the MediaCentral Platform provides a standardized foundation that connects media creators and distributors together, regardless of who makes the tools they use. This fundamentally changes how media organizations and professionals operate, providing greater flexibility to choose solutions and easily customize and scale complete end-to-end workflows tailored to meet specific needs.
Building on the Avid Everywhere strategic vision, Avid has reorganized its existing hardware and software products and introduced new solutions in three suites, all built upon the MediaCentral Platform. With on-premises and cloud-enabled deployment options, as well as subscription, floating, and perpetual licensing, customers now have greater choice over how they use Avid solutions.
- Artist Suite encompasses all of the products and tools used to create content, including digital audio workstations (DAW), music notation software, control surfaces, live sound systems, video editing solutions, and graphics creation systems.
- Media Suite includes all of the tools and services used to manage, protect, distribute, and monetize media, including solutions for newsroom management, asset management, and multiplatform distribution. Over time, the Media Suite will expand to include metadata tagging, protection and encryption, and analytics.
- Storage Suite refers to all of the products and tools used to capture, store, and deliver media, including online storage, nearline storage, and ingest/playout servers.
