I found my mxf ama plugin choice missing again today after fixing this a couple weeks back. Today I first reinstalled Avid with no success. Then removed the existing msp_mxf ama plugin from the avx 2/ama folder and reinstalled and trash .avs, mc state and site settings still no good. Finally I removed everything from the ama plugin folder and reinstalled a third time then it came back. The Avid install gave me two items in the ama folder the msp_mxf and msp_ AS02. With just those two I had a choice of auto, mxf, avchd and quicktime for ama plugins. I then put back in the other ama plugins and everything is fine.
WTF is this going to be a weekly routine. I've had some Adobe updates and Apple Pro Video during the last time I fixed this. Could there be an interaction? The msp_mxf was in the folder but not being recognized. Anybody else see this?

I did confirm that a install did in fact install the msp mxf plugin. I wonder if the existing version in the ama folder was not allowing a new install. Weird given this is a fairly clean new install on the computer and I don't think it ever had pre 6.5 installed. Oh well now that this is working I'm checking the .mxf XDCam OP 1a file and finding the levels are off like it was expecting RGB but only got 601 levels. the setup is high and washed out and the peak white is low just like an RGB 601 miss match. I'll have to check the Adobe Media Encoder for more settings.

I baked a file and now I want to check it in Avid. The problem is in my experience I have to manually select the MXF plugin in order to ama link to an XDCAM 50 mxf file. On my work system I don't see MXF as a choice in the ama plugins pulldown menu. I've reinstalled Sony XDCAM 2.33 on my MacPro 12 core OS 10.8.5 SNDX ver. 6.5.4.7 but still don't see MXF as a choice. I listed the ama plugins in the console and I see MSP_MXF Plug-in Avid Technology, Inc 1.9.2.7195. It is my understanding that as of 6.5.0.1 the MXF ama plugin is automatically installed so there is no reason to download an ama plugin for mxf.I remember there were some ama plugins that relied on the presence of other ama plugins. Perhaps it was Canon needed the AVC HD or some such thing. At any rate what must I be missing to not see MXF in the ama plugin list of choices?John Moore Barking Trout Productions Studio City, CA bigfish@...
