"Wrong Format" on Avid XPress 5.8
by Kerry Dye on May 7, 2008 at 3:02:45 am

Okay, so I have a 90 min. feature that was originally edited on, I believe, Avid Adrenaline. I'm now trying to open it on an Avid XPress 5.8 install and all of the MXF media (1080p/23.976, DNxHD 175 X) is giving me that happy "wrong format" screen.

After reading these boards, it sounds like my problem is that the clips were captured at a resolution that XPress doesn't support. It further appears that I'm going to have to go to someone who *can* read this resolution and have them transcode it to something XPress can read.

Now, for the experts (and with thanks in advance), a few of questions to help me on my path:

1. Is there any way to tell, given one of these MXFs, what resolution it's in?

2. What resolution do I need it in for XPress to be able to work with it?

3. Any guesses as to how long it will take to transcode 100 minutes of DNxHD 175 footage? (Got a time crunch happening.)

Thanks, guys ...

Kerry
