I am new to the AJA Xena and I have a couple of (maybe stupid) questions. After I installed the Xena LH software I noticed it created an AJA folder with a Format folder inside it with AVI & MOV plugins and a couple of other files: Xena.8be file and a Xena.qtx file on my drive array. Why did it place these files on the array instead of my system drive with the other AJA Xena software? Can I move them? My other question is: am I correct that you have to use Machina to capture your clips and then import them into Adobe Premiere Pro 2? I don’t see any capture settings in APP2 for Xena.

Thanks!

Does The Xena LH card support DVCPRO HD Capture and Edits in Premiere Pro 2.0?

(I asked this in another thread but forgot to check the Emil option. My bad.)

Thanks Aja Team!

Hi,

We do not support the DVCPRO-HD codec.

The XENA LH, with the new v2 software, supports uncompressed AVI and QuickTime, TGA, TIFF, BMP, Cineon, and DPX. Within Premiere Pro 2.0, we also support realtime HDV playback. All of these supported file formats (of the same raster) can be mixed and matched in a single timeline, with RT color FX and color correction, with no rendering!

Thank you,
