With Canon just releasing the 1D X and the video targeted C300, don’t look for anything too soon in terms of the next 5D…just my opinion.

Sorry, must be a Mojo thing. My software (5.o) and hardware (5.5 Nitris) both show 29.97.
I’m not sure, anyone else?

Select “new project”
Format: 1080p/29/97 should be an optionThat would be your best option.

Avid works differently than FCP when it comes to file management. All imported media goes to the drive you specify on the import screen. (Hopefully you work with an external drive and not your system drive.) In other words, all media you work with in Avid, gets imported and new files created. Music, stills, video, everything gets imported to the following folder…
You will find a folder called “Avid MediaFiles”. You really don’t need to navigate to this unless you are trouble shooting other issues. Also, the files you find in here won’t just open in QT, like your Capture Scratch files in FCP.
This also makes media management easy, since all clips used in the project are stored in this one place and not just pointing to the original files which could be scattered on several drives. You may want to look at a program call Avid Media Mover by Random Video (https://www.randomvideo.com/products/mediamover_avid.html). This makes backing up an entire project really easy since it moves all media into one folder.
Hope that helps.

Use option 1 that Andrew mentions. Options 2 is good if you have a ton of clips and will only be using a few clips, but playback of the H264 files via AMA gets slow in long sequences.

Bret,
That is exactly the problem. If I wasn’t dealing with 170 files x 12 languages, this wouldn’t be as big of an issue.
I appreciate it very much.

Make sure you have your yellow trim roller, and drag it out.

Surprised no one mentioned the issues of combining a DSLR and snowboarding – rolling shutter. Isn’t that a concern for what he is looking to do?

Let me see I understand your set-up: media is on an external drive adn you want to copy all the media to another drive.
Copy the entire Avid MediaFiles folder to the new hard drive. Make sure there are no Avid MediaFiles folders on your internal HDD. Disconnect the old drive, start MC.
One program that is great for helping search for media on all volumes is Media Mover.
