Problem importing Avid aff
Hi,
I am trying to export a avid project for use in Resolve.
I exported the AFF by selecting sequence->Export…
I then selected Export for Pro Tooles and pressed Options…
From here I selected AAF, Consolidate Media and said use same folder for video/audio as AAF file.
When I try to load the AFF file into Resolve it cant find any of the mxf files even though I have put the top level directory the AAF and all the media files are consolidated to.

Hi Ben,
What are your project settings and what format are you transcoding your videos to? MXF files with unsupported encoding will usually not show up in Resolve.
Thanks,

Number 1 reason this could fail, is …. Reel numbers !
First check in the avid bin if the media has something listed under tape name ?
if yes they all do then, on the config page of resolve choose Assist using reel numbers from the
“Embedding in source clip file”if no, none of the clips have tape numbers, then turn off Assist using reel numbers and try re-importing the AAF,
OBTW, why export for protools ? Just use an untitled, no idea what would be set or flag exporting for protools.
