MC5 handles natively via AMA.

If you can watch the files in Quicktime, Avid will see them.
The ProRes decoder is included with Quicktime 7 and higher, I believe. If you’re running an older version of Avid and can’t upgrade your Quicktime that high, download the decoder and see if it reads the files then. Here’s the Windows ProRes decoder – the Mac decoder should be on the Apple site as well (I had this one bookmarked).

David, which version of MC are you using? If not MC5 Avid has a special upgrade price available for a couple more weeks. It’s well worth the investment especially with any file based workflow. Native support on Quicktime, XDCAM EX, R3D, and many more through AMA.
