Unable to delete clips in timeline
Hi all-
I’m on a MC 4.0.5 Nitris DX. I’m running into a pretty unusual and inexplicable problem with a new project. I am unable to delete any clips from any sequence in the project – if I select a clip in segment mode (either lift [red arrow] or extract [yellow arrow]), then press delete, nothing happens. If I am trying to delete a clip from a video track, MC asks me if I want to delete the selected tracks. If I try to delete an audio clip, there is no response at all. This is only happening in this project – all other projects operate normally.
The seeming culprit is the fact that this project contains all XDCAM EX footage… a brand new workflow for us. It was exported using the AVID AAF workflow from Sony EX clip browser (creates MXF media in the Avid Media folder and AAF files which reference these MXFs and are themselves pulled into the Avid), and imported into the bins. But I have not been able to find any other mention of this problem.
Any ideas? Anybody run into this before?

select track(s), mark an in, mark an out and either lift or cut, depending on what ya wanna do.

I actually came up with a work-around which involved opening all the bins in a new project and transcoding all the media from XDCAM EX 35 to DNX HD… No idea why the EX video format should cause this problem, though, as it’s officially supported in the 1080i 59.94 video format with 1920×1080 raster dimensions… But such it is. Has anybody else had any similar problems with XDCAM EX media?
