I find it hard to believe in 2016 that we don't have true uuid on every clip created. True metadata referential integrity so we can care free change names and locations of clips with zero worry.I also believe it's time for timecode to be retired in exchange for frame numbers so we can get past the need for correlated timecode when shooting off time base frame rates.UUID to locate the clip, frame number to find the frame.Done.Best regardsMike

Curious how the tape ID column winds up being used in your workflow? Do you find a use for it inside Avid, or is it more for interchange with other apps?

The standard Post workflow is to seperate robust AMA sources tgat have UMIDs from non robust sources tgat reky on clip name and timecode only (some not even timecode)
Those sources are then bulk renamed to ensure each AMA linked clip has a unique clip name.
The clips folder name is the added to the tape id column (mot rape name)
This helps ensure reliable conforming.
Its all in the prep.
