Using Final Cut captures (only) in AVID – is that possible
I poster it also in the AVID board, but I know this board is more alive and I’m sure someone
here can help me.I captured ten 20min clips from miniDV on Final Cut. But I want to edit them on Avid Xpress (just for practice).
I imported the MOVs into the Avid, it did some converting and now I have the files to work with.Only question is, am I in the safe ? or do I need another kind of import ?
Please note, I only need the big quicktime files, not any bin or project info. I’m doing online.cheers

Well… if it all goes good with the practice, I might end up doing the project in AVID.
The files run OK, export OK, and they were converted to those foul-named OMFI files.What I meant by “safe” is that hopefully I won’t have to capture anything again ..
by the way -after 2 days with avid I really appriciate FCP’s ability to SELECT a clip in
timeline hassle free (not to mention that “lost in space” feeling I have with that ugly avid timeline)cheers
