Re: Unable to find source AAF file -Round Trip Avid Export

Resolve embeds the tape name for me. Note that the "Tape Name" in Avid is the same thing as the "Reel Number" in Resolve. So in Resolve, do your source clips show the correct tape name in the "Reel No" column? Or is it blank? Because Resolve carries that information over to the new MXFs it renders.

EDIT: If Resolve does not show the proper reel number/tape name for your source clips, you'll need to fix that before you render out. Go over to your media pool in the Browse tab, highlight your clips, right-click them and choose "Set Reel Number." You'll have several options to choose from. If you're importing MXFs from Avid, you can probably choose "Embedding in source clip" to get the right tape name. If you're using something that isn't MXF (like AMA-linked footage in Avid), you'll have to set them manually, or you have a few other options if you refer to the Resolve manual on the subject.
