  • Avid: Video playback issues, can hear audio

    Posted by Rachel Howard on January 4, 2020 at 6:01 pm

    Hi everyone,
    I’m coming across an issue with Avid–

    When I drop an mxf file into a sequence, only the audio plays, no video.
    I’ve been having issues with the Quicktime plugin as well, keep being booted off it, but haven’t been booted off this session. Not sure if these are related problems!

    Thanks for any insights!

    Need a bit more info…

    AMA linked media?
    If AMA linked, what created the file? is it a camera original or transcoded?
    If transcoded, what was used?
    Avid Native Media in Avid managed MediaFile folders
    When you say MXF, which is a wrapper, what codec is inside it?
    Do other files from the same camera/transcode process work properly?
    Media Composer version
    OS platform and version
    Software only, or IO hardware attached?

    Michael
