[Avid-L2] Re: Automatic Duck help?

Thanks Wes for looking at this.

First, I have to thank you for pointing out that I needed to put the .aif files in the OMFI folder. I didn't have one previously as we've only been working in MXF here. I created it and moved the files into it.

However, I moved the .mxf files into the Avid MediaFiles/MXF... folder and upon launching Avid, I get [b]Exception: 'AbstractMDB::ScanMXFFileToMobManager - Invalid data stream offset'[/b] The OMFI folder scans just peachy.

I'm not sure what is up with that. I guess the video is corrupt in some way.

Ever seen the invalid data stream error?

Thanks again
