Not exactly sure what scenario you're after, there's a couple of things you might be asking. First, add your clip to the timeline by pressing the 'B' key to overwrite into the sequence, or 'V' to insert it. If you've come from FCP7(Premiere?) then it is possible there to double click on the clip, it opens up in the source

So I just discovered something new which seems to fix the issue that lots of people have with Media Composer displaying video levels "correctly" but not "naturally" like other NLEs do. If you right-click in the composer window there is a new item in the menu - Display Color Space - with options like Rec709, Rec709[Full range], SRGB

Hi Alexey I upgraded to 7.0.4.3 patch and now the issue has disappeared. I can AMA-link to the mxf files that I output without problems. I have to set the AMA plugin to MXF but it works fine then. thanks Campbell

I'm trying to do subtitles in MC7.0.4.2 on Mac 10.9 and am getting the same result as in MC8.3, macron characters are appearing as a "?" and fixing them in the Master Caption List doesn't help. Is anyone from Avid dealing with this? It's been a crucial part of my workflow for years and now it's broken!

Hi Alexey, thanks for helping. I've got several systems, running both Mac and PC. I'm on 7.0.4 on both. In the open dialogue I can see 'MXF (*.mxf)' and 'AS-11(*.mxf)' listed in the AMA plugins. However choosing either of these, or using auto-detect, the import still fails. This occurs on both Mac and PC. I've also tried

I've been using the AMA file export function to export an AS-11 mxf file for broadcast. I'd like to be able to re-import these files, partly to check them and partly if we want to re-use sections of the program in the future. But when I try to AMA-link to the file I get an error message that Avid is unable to auto-detect the AMA Plugin. I'm

I've just noticed that in both MC 7.0.4 and 8.3 that if I change the project format then any rendered effects become unrendered. I need to do this as we output our programme in both HD and SD and usually I just switch the format for the SD output. Previously in MC5.5 I could do this with no issue, all rendered effects stayed renderd. There are two

Hi I'm updating my MXF export workflow and had a couple of questions. Previously, in MC5.5, I used a fake XDCAM disk image to do an "output to XDCAM" which created the MXF file that I delivered. Worked well but slightly messy. Since upgrading to MC7.0.4 (yes, still behind on the version...) I've tried the Export "MXF Op1A"

I've just tested this on MC8.3, Windows 7, and can report exactly the same behaviour as the OP, Krishius. I import the subtitles file (Avid DS format), and the macron characters come out wrong. I open the Master Caption List where I would normally edit macron characters (because you can't edit them in the Effects Editor - why??? this should

Oh drat! We need to stay on MC7 to be compatible with our Editshare (bit slow, only just made the jump from MC5.5!). We're going to get Red for our effects package but I was hoping to use the BCC Lite effects for some good quick effects. Is there anything we can do about this? cheers Campbell
