Sharing footage avid to avid.
Posted by John Keating on July 21, 2016 at 2:22 amI have a large 5 hour file that I have sub clipped into about 30 clips. How do I send the original file in s way that he can link the subclips. The clip has been consolidated into an mxf file. Ty for the help.

July 21, 2016 at 5:20 amMake a bin for this clip. Drag the clip into that bin. Save that bin. Click on the clip and right-click and choose REVEAL IN FINDER. A window will open and the media will appear highlighted. Send the bin and those MXF files to the other person. That person will then have to put the media into the Avid Mediafiles structure on their end.

July 22, 2016 at 2:18 pmremember that if your clip has audio, you will have to give him all the files in the folder with that name base…one will have a V in the name to indicate V, but you should also see 2 or more directly under or above it with A in the name to indicate those are the audio files.
When you first hit the reveal button, Avid will only show you the first of those files. If you go back to avid, it may then say reveal next?…so that might help you a bit as well.

What about the subclips I have made. Do I place them in that bin as well?

August 5, 2016 at 9:08 pmYes. The only way they can see the media, or clips, is if you give them the bins. I mean, they CAN make a bin and get the media in there, but ANY organization you do, they won’t have unless you give them the bins.
