Thanks Michael for chiming in ☺
On the Mac side:
Avid MC 8.4.5
OS X Sierra
RED AMA 1.19 (I tried 1.16 first)

Windows:
Avid MC 8.8.4bxxxx
Windows 10
RED AMA 1.18

I have to contact the HP owner before I can start updating his software.

I just did a test from Resolve using AAF and on the Mac side and the files still show OFFLINE.

I have done the RCX export many times in the past and never had issues.
To be honest I haven’t done this workflow since last year.
Usually just AMA and transcode.
But even that I cant do, the Link/Import don’t work with R3D files

Funny this topic comes up just before I inherited a RED DRAGON shot project.
They provided me an HP Z840 to prep a feature but I am seeing a ton of issues with my Avid and RED workflow.
For starters, I can’t seem to import any R3D in this Windows version.
When using Source Browser I see a list of clips (named clips) and it shows “can’t be linked” under the Plug-in column.
None of the clips will import, too many different warnings to post.
When using Import it states the file is not supported.
I guess I’ve been using the Mac version of Avid for far too long to know whats up ☹
I also tried exporting an ALE from REDCINE and the files show up as offline.
I imported the MXF into Resolve on the same HP and the files are fine.
There is an older project in Avid and that seems fine.
What am I missing here?

You can export Camera data from Max/Maya to After Effects.
Ive done it with Maya not sure how it fares from Max.
Im sure there is a way from C4D.

Mostly eyeballing it unless you have a 100-foot jib 🙂

Great stuff Brent, let met give that a try 🙂

Switch the 3D toggle on and make sure the pivot/axis is dead center.

Then go to down with rotation use all angles and/or use Camera.

Currently, this is a stop-gap solution due to a poorly organized film shoot.
As long as I can extract all the data from the Windows box I’m happy.

Question though.
What are people using to move from PC to Mac with RAID sets?
I’m usually in a server environment but this current setup is closed off.

I picked up Ironwolf 6TB 7200RPMs for now.

Alex has a great post here:

Thanks, Alex/Greg.

The RAID sets were created in Windows using Disk Management.
After a few attempts, I gave up.
I know for a fact the original RAID sets will work (swap) for both OWC/Internal since they were originally created that way.
I guess I was trying to force the RAID sets into a different system (as Alex stated this isn’t going to work) so that I can work with all the RED files in one volume.
Currently, the whole feature is in four different RAID sets.
