Re: [Avid-L2] MXF folders (next puzzle)

 

Guys,

Here's a thought/question.... not in a position to fire up the machine
at the moment to have a play.

So we can have roughly 2k of files in the folder. Is there any limit to
the number of folders or the 'number that the folder is' ie:

D:\Avid MediaFiles\MXF\105674
or even
D:\Avid MediaFiles\MXF\30467834521

I had a cunning plan on reading this thread to do with backing up. When
the project is complete/done/transcoded. Could one consolidate the media
to a clean drive. Rename the folder to a unique number, the media Db
might need to rebuild, and then back that up somewhere.

Now I know Avid, uses \mxf\1 and I've seen \mxf\23 on unity systems.

Could be useful for series generics/kits or projects that you know you
will come back to. Or just keeping the back up of transcoded AMA
projects without the faf of re importing AMA bits.

Cheers,

Marcus
