Metadata

Avid Media Composer

Before importing MXF files into Avid Media Composer from the FS-5, it is first necessary to run the FS-5 Utility, Organize MXF. This utility creates the Avid MXF directory structure and embeds the metadata in the MXF files.

The video files are then ready to import into Avid Media Composer.

In Avid Media Composer, use the Media Tool to import the MXF files into a specified bin. Because Avid incorporates metadata into the MXF wrapper, both the video content and metadata are imported together.

A video clip’s metadata appears in the bin column selection window.

For more information see Importing Video and Metadata Into Avid on page 74.
