.mov import Avidxpress

[Grinner Hester]

If you export them as mov files using the animation codec or a Avid codec, she’ll be able to import them.

Thank you so much. Will give it a try. DOn’t have any AVID codecs that I know of in FCP5

Just download (for free) and install: https://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=372311

My best guess is that you are using some codec on the FCP side that the receiving partner does not have on their system.

When you install the Avid codec on your end, it will save them import time on their end, as .mov files in the Avid codec will fast import into Avid (as no transcoding would be required anymore).

Good morning Job. Thanks you so very much for your reply.. Especially so early in the morning. I will give it a try.

Hi Wendell:

I recently wrote up how to perform a Fast Import correctly. Hope this may help!
