I would do this:

- move said MXF files into a new numbered folder
- launch MC and let it create a database and index for these files
- open a bin and drag and drop the MDB file into the bin

This creates master clips of everything in that folder.

I was transcoding a whole bunch of RED files to DNxHD 175 overnight using MC8.0's Consolidate/Transcode function. This morning, before all the clips were finished, I got one of those ridiculous "segmentation fault" errors and MC crashed. Consequently, I lost 13 hours of over night transcode work.

And yet, there in the MXF folder are all the MXF files that were generated overnight. Except MC, having crashed, never made the master clips in the project to which those MXF files link. So is there any way to, somehow, generate the master clips in MC such that they see and use the MXF files, that already exist?

I might be explaining this in a confusing way, but perhaps there's some way to avoid having to do this all over again. I mean, it's agonizing — the MXF files are done. They're right there! It's just that MC doesn't know they're there. Is this fixable?

Thanks,

DD
