Change the folder to allow sharing, and click off of “Read Only.” Make sure there are no other files from your previous folder that are not .mxf files. Delete the .pmr and .mdb files. Let Avid re-build, and see if that works.

Rick:
From the Xpress Pro ReadMe:
“To send your edited HDV sequence back to an HDV device, you need to use a transport stream. You can use an existing transport stream or create a new one. To create a digital cut to go out to other devices, you need to first transcode the sequence.
Exporting to an HDV Device
The Export to HDV Device dialog box lets you create a transport stream file. You cannot use the standard Digital Cut tool to output HDV. You must use a separate IEEE 1394 card to output the transport stream file back to the HDV device. You can export an entire sequence or the marked section between IN and OUT points.
To export the HDV material to an HDV device:
1. Select the sequence or marked section.
2. Select Clip > Export to HDV Device
The Export to HDV Device dialog box opens.
3. Select options as described in “Export to HDV Device Settings” on page 10,and click OK.
The transport stream file is created (or saved, if you used an existing transport stream).”Regards,

You can use FluidMotion to change the frame rate of the HD footage

and then use a BCC filter like Film Grain or Film Process to try and match the look.

Can you identify a pattern to those where it works and those where it doesn’t? Can you check your audio settings on the projects and make sure they are not set for using outboard gear like Mojo, Digi 002, etc.?

Were the projects you cannot hear created on a system WITH a Mojo? That seems to be the reason that has ever happened to me. Do you have a Mojo available to you?

Kstherine,
SD video is 720 X 480 for DV, 720 X 486 for D1 (Beta SP, etc.) at 72 dpi. If you want to go higher rez with it, software programs like Photoshop can interpolate the image, but don’t expect great results. You can google for programs that claim to do this well.
Good luck,

This is an old comparison, but the basic differences are still the same:

Media Composer is definately the way to go, but I agree to wait until NAB if that works for you.

Avid doesn’t mix frame rates natively. The workaroud, from Avid’s own Michael Phillips:

Mark,
Select Tools > Video Output.
The Video Output tool opens.
Click the Output menu, and select an output format:
– Component
– Composite
– SVideo
This only works if you have a Mojo or Mojo SDI hooked up.
