Have you already actually tried importing it into Vegas 16 or the trial.
And what issue appeared?

Vegas doesn`t allow me to open them. Maybe there are something in preferences or Vegas actually don`t work with mxf in general?

I don’t know about “in general”? But I do know VP16 Build 261 opens my MXF Files just fine – no issues. It will also Render to MXF if I so wish.

From your comments you need to know that MXF is only a wrapper, this from WiKi:

“MXF is a “container” or “wrapper” format which supports a number of different streams of coded “essence”, encoded in any of a variety of video and audio compression formats, together with a metadata wrapper which describes the material contained within the MXF file.”

So, Ilona, you need to know just what it is that inside that MXF OP-Atom. Download MediaInfo and use it to interrogate the CODECs that is needed to read them. I wouldn’t install any CODECs just yet, see if the MXF can be converted to another MXF or MPEG that’ll work nicely with VP16.

This MXF OP-Atom MXF file is more complex than I know – sorry ????
