Thanks Roger,
I'm freelance so it's not up to me but Bouke always has a bunch of cool stuff on his site. I have found that if the structure is lost I can still AMA to file rather than volume on v.6. I'll be doing a bunch tonight for a new show that has deemed it a good idea to shoot AVCHD minicams, so I have hours and hours of AVCHD material in which maybe 5 seconds of usable footage happens when someone walks past a mirror etc. Rather than take the time to select TCs so I can sub off a tiny section and just transcode that, they want the whole bunch in. Sigh...

You might want to consider this: http://www.videotoolshed.com/product/69/avidmxfcreator.
In my case it does not offer a speed advantage but you can create Avid media on a non-Avid machine, offloading the transcoding. Helps me with MC 4 and 5.5 where there is no AMA for AVCHD. I've been testing the demo but will almost certanly buy it. Also deals with rogue loose .MTS files if the card structure is lost.
