Re: [Avid-L2] AAF and AMA linked files

Copy sequence, delete the video track, transcode with handles to a target drive- fixing sample rate and size during transcodes. Then embed that new sequence into an AAF and you should be good to go. Very annoying, for sure, but seems to work for us.

Alternatively, after deleting the video tracks I keep getting the error that I can't export an audio only AAF. MC insists on exporting an AAF with video, which then is a huge file. I tried deleting the video files after export, but the audio guys aren't able to get the AAF to link up. I was able to relink the AAF on my end, after re-opening MC, but the audio guys on Protools 9.0 aren't able to do it. Also, when I try to do an embed with the video, the file is bigger than 2GB.
