Alex ElkinsFast Import ProRes - How?
by on Jan 13, 2012 at 4:40:20 pm

I'm a long-time FCP user but completely new to Avid, save for a fair bit of testing and Avid tutorials. I'm about to begin a simple (but real) project in Avid MC6.

I have 1920x1080/25p ProRes (non HQ) QuickTime media that I want to re-wrap to MXF.
As far as I can tell, all I should have to do is change the settings in the Media Creation tool to ProRes MXF, then import the file. Avid should then tell me that it is Fast Importing, as opposed to simply Importing or Transcoding. Is this correct?

If not, what should I be doing?

If it is correct then I'm in need of help, as whenever I import with the above settings, it doesn't Fast Import - a 40second QuickTime file takes about 90 seconds to import - that doesn't sound like a 'Fast Import' to me.

Where could I being going wrong?


Thanks in advance
