    Hey guys, Im having a rough times with some MXF files.
    I have the mxf files which are the content of the Avid MediaFiles folder but I have no bin with their image inside Avid.
    How can I add this files into Avid so I can work with then? Any suggestions?
    Cheeers and thanx for the attention,

    If the mxf’s are in the Avid MediaFiles folder and in a numbered folder inside the mxf folder, a database for the clips will be built when you load avid. If you look in the folder that your clips are in there should be an mmob file, if you create a new bin in media composer and drag the mmob file into the bin it will populate the bin with all the clips in that folder.
