Re: [Avid-L2] Anybody know what camera generates this crap?

Thanks. I had to download the Canon drivers for AMA. That worked. What a pain in the butt. I appreciate the assistance, especially Dom's link to the Sony file.

Is there any way to AMA link all of these separate folders? I'm having to go in to each individual folder to import the clips from that folder... sixty or so folders, each requiring a separate AMA link.
