Importing video files
Hi everybody.
I’d like to know what’s the best and fastes codec to import video files in Avid.I tried for example to export a 2 min video in QT with AVID codec, but when importing it takes like 1 minutes.
Is there any configuration for export that avoid recompressing when importing?Thanks a lot.

It should do a ‘Fast Import’ when using an Avid codec, but there are some caveats – you need to have the right import settings (namely 601/709 pixel size and colour space) and the clip needs to be encoded properly.
I regularly render clips from After Effects and other apps into Avid codecs and get good Fast Imports into Media Composer.
