AFD Flags
I have been trying to figure out how to add AFD flags to spots. Did a bunch of Google searches but cant find out how to only what it is. I did see AJA has the FS1 that will add it but trying to see if a relatively inexpensive software solution is available.

Hi Erik,
CPC has software technology to encode AFD when using a Matrox MXO2. Any service or user with MacCaption-DTV or higher can generate the AFD track for the MXO2. To my knowledge this is the only option for baseband output with AFD from FCP.We can also encode AFD using Avid Media Composer 5’s D-track feature via a Mojo/Nitris DX.
For file-based workflows we can add AFD directly to XDCAM-type MXF files if you can deliver a MXF file or XDCAM disc, and also add AFD directly to MPEG-2 files.
Hope this helps,
Jason Livingston

thanks Jason.
I will have a look at the software you suggested. However I don’t have a MXO2 so that will be a problem. I’m wondering how most people add the AFD flag to spots or shows.
