First some housekeeping…The most current version of v5.5x is 5.5.5, so an update might help. (That version is still available on the AVID download site.)
Also, here is an article from AVID that describes the need to explicitly install an AVX plugin for that file format, and links for mac and pc to get it:
Some standard things about old AMA linking…
Don't use "auto" setting when linking, explicitly pick the AMA AVCHD plugin. The auto setting was very dicey in older versions of Media Composer and often blocked functionality.
There are several bug reports about not being able to do some AVC codecs in real time on v5.5x so I suggest if you get the card to link, transcode!
Finally, there may be windows drivers required if you are using a card reader.
Hope this helps…

Same setup worked fine last year for a similar project.Error message that he is getting is along the lines of "this is not the first clip of a spanned clip, if this is a spanned clip it will be out of sync."Of course - none of these files are spanned.As a result of this message, he finds himself unable to batch import his material and is having to import one entire week of footage one clip at a time. I suggested that he AMA the files into his system, but he has been unable to do so - I'm guessing because of the age of his system.--Tim McLaughlin
