Re: Getting OMF into Avid
by Mike Sussman on Jul 2, 2009 at 3:51:20 pm

The subdirectory idea sounds like a good way to make it easier to find but that seems like it will really fragment my directory structure if I do this process over and over again several times a day. And I can't just clean up these straggler folders if I want to keep the media long term.

So anyway, even if it's in a subdirectory or elsewhere, the process is still dropping the file on a drive and then using the media tool to find it and then drag that found file from the media tool to a bin? Is that the process? Seems like a lot more steps and a lot more time (especially with the Media Tool being involved) for something that will be done several times every day. I wanted to save disc space on my saved renders (before Avid) but it's still seems a whole lot easier to keep doing what I'm currently doing which is to simply import Quicktimes rendered in the huge Animation codec.

(P.S. I know QT in H.264 codec would be great for small rendered file sizes and the ability to simply import rather than all that process above but the washed out H.264 bug in quicktime ruins it)
