Avid Adrenaline and HD editing
On the Avid Adrenaline, when working in HD, is it always based on the DNxHD format ?
Is there such thing as a HD non-DNxHD format in the Avid Adrenaline ?

You can work with DVCPROHD and HDV (badly, from what I hear). No uncompressed HD.
It really works best if you ingest as DNX HD. -
MediaComposer 2.5 and above will work with media of the following types: DNxHD, DVCProHD, HDV, XDCam HD, uncompressed MXF.
DVCProHD, HDV, XDCam HD is ingested as native files from the original acqusition media. The Media Composer does not create new media of these types.
With the DNxCell hardware, HD can be digitized as DNxHD. the hardware also outputs the above as video.
DNxHD and Uncompressed MXF media can be created via import, render or mixdown. Any DNxHD or uncompressed media generated in say, a Symphony, can be used in a Media Composer. the limit is the hardware. uncompressed media can neither be created nor output through the Adrenaline.
My experience with HDV on the Media Composer was quite positive. there were certainly some limitations, and I wouldn’t try to finish back to HDV, but it ran and a lot of nice work got done by a non-technical editor.

Hi Dino,
Is it possible to transcode DNxHD MXF to Uncompressed HD MXF on an Adrenaline ? I’m trying to see if I can export a DNxHD timeline out as AAF but with Uncompressed HD MXF media instead of DNxHD.
Regards,
