Just so anyone searching the threads can find this…..

AAF from AVid-PPRO and back to AVid is totally doable….

Right now I am capturing in PPRO and sending an AAF to Avid which is then batch captured in Avid from original source tapes and working flawlessly. Adobe dosn’t like Avid’s version of MXF….so it is either captured at both ends….or is AMA into MC

It will also work from an AAF to avid through an AMA link….but then if there is a change later in life it is not as simple to get the original media from the tapes…i.e. no batch capture.

“Don’t do this. If time is short, don’t try to go from one NLE to another NLE and hope that things just reconnect in the end. Either get Avid and edit with that, or say that you cannot do it and let someone who knows Avid edit it.”

Thanks for the advice Shane….I do know Avid as well, but am not into working nights at a facility with only one suite….and I still would like the work.

Thanks for the advice…
Right now I am making use of the shy button and organizing my comp accordingly….

I may try it again making sure there are no 2d layers inbetween the 3d stack…I had already set each layer in the precomp to recieve lights….either way I should get it to work

Thanks
