Seems to me you might be better off just linking to the 60fps material in your 24fps timeline to start and making the edits that way. Or at least something to try in a quick test. Make the slow down either on the timeline with the motion effect editor, or via the source settings to payback frame for frame to match project rate.

Did you add the MXF files from the Avid/MediaFiles folder structure to the Media Pool in DaVinci?

Not so much the DNxHD codec which AME does support, it’s the wrapper and OSX changes to MOV, etc. as you mention as the end of the post. Wrapping it as MXF is the solution.

2018.x.x series is the older UI
2019.x.x. is the newer UI
2020.x.x. is the newer UI for Catalina. There will never be the older UI on CatalinaAs far as horror stories, I have not hear anything of horror – there are some issues being raised with some of the title related stuff, etc. I don’t know if Avid has a dedicated public 2020 beta feedback setup for its public beta.

You can get IO devices that have both HDMI and SDI – it will be dependent on what the camera itself has a connection for output. And unlike some dedicated external recorders, MC does not support any embedded file naming or camera START/STOP commands. It will all be manual. And if capturing directly, original camera filename may not be needed, but you sure do need a quick backup solution when doing so.
HDMI allows for bandwidth than SDI depending on the version of HDMI being used. HDMI 2.0, for example, has 3x the bandwidth of SDI. Depending on the format, SDI will eventually need dual or quad connections.

Timecode is the way to go if you can manage it! If using this camera, you would need the one LTC device recording to the camera after having been synced to the TC output of the TASCAM.

If audio waveform sync works for you, the camera makes beautiful images – so no real rush to change cameras if I were you. I was just giving you a heads up as to how to sync your double system audio workflow as I’m assuming your audio files do not have TOD either. In order to do timecode sync, both devices need to be able to jam to a timecode source or you are recording LTC to each of the device’s audio track as sync reference using something like Tentacle Systems.

Seeing as there was no time of day timecode used, you will most likely be using AutoSync with Waveform. You can’t select all your day’s dailies and do that, you will need to select each pair of V+A files, then AutoSync with Waveform. You should be fine.

If it did, it wouldn’t matter with Media Composer as it does not support embedded REEL in MOV files.

If your on set recording was 60.000fps, and the slowdown to 23.976 was frame for frame, then you would need to apply a 250.25% timewarp to return clips to original recorded speed and not have drift.
