Mark and Bogdan,
Thank you both for the tips and suggestions. I don't want to exhaust this thread but in the final analysis given I had a completely contiguous 23.976 mixdown to use in the 59.94 project I didn't have to do a second mixdown but let it render to the exported file. This was an ancillary textless version for promo that had already been cut so if it failed it wasn't air critical. I doubt I will have any issues with it.
To some it up for me if I'm in need of a full proof file heading to unknown places the double video mixdown is the way to go. When I've established a workflow with a vendor/network I will be able to utilize the single mixdown approach whenever I can. That's a win win.
PS: figuring out that setting media creations to ProRes to allow for the single mixdown approach is in my top 10 Avid tricks I've learned this year.

I'll have to double check this. I always figured the only new media created when exporting to QT is the actual QT file itself and nothing in the Avidmediafiles folder. I'll have to check on this when I come up from air.

If I have a simple sequence with dissolves as the transition effect I don't recall having to render the dissolves to export to QT. I thought Avid just rendered the effects on the fly when exporting but perhaps I've just not paid attention given I am always prerendering my upper track safe color effect before exporting.
IIRC when I export a simple sequence like the dissolve transitions I don't remember it being rendered after the export which is why I always assumed Avid was just baking as it went to the file export.

So the motion adapter is a special case that requires a render for an export unlike other Avid effects. I was hoping it would just render out on the fly as it made the .mov file eliminating the render media on the Avid side. If that's the case the 2nd video mixdown seems like the better way to go for all the reasons already listed.
