Re: [Avid-L2] Red nightmare

 

You don't import (or even AMA) the MXF files that RedCine creates. They
are OP-Atom MXF files, so you just put them in the Avid MediaFiles
folder. RedCine should also be creating AAF files which you can then
import and link to the media. It creates ALEs too, but they aren't
actually valid ALE files and Media Composer rejects them. As an
alternative to using the AAFs, you can bring the files in with the Media
Tool (although you'll get less metadata across that way).
