Error Message when importing XDCAM footage into Avid Media Composer 5
I’m getting an error message when importing an XDCAM clip into Avid.
It reads:
Exception MXFDomain WriteIndexTable – Failed to write index table to file
Any thoughts as to how I can correct this and import properly.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Robert,
Are you mounting a XDCAM disk or sxs card through AMA?
I think you might want to trash your data base files that live inside your Avid Mediafiles folder…Avid Mediafiles/MXF/1 You want to trash the .mdb and .pmr files
You can also just use the media tool. It is under your tools tab.
Select the drive letter of the mounted disk or card and all projects within the media tool. That should load the XDcam clips into a bin, you can then move those clips to another bin inside the project.
Or you can try linking through AMA, then transcoding the material.
