All, What should I expect in terms of being able to record or playback DNxHR in MXF containers using FFMPEG and the compatibility of those clips in major NLEs?
I see some support in FFMPEG source code (version 3.4) for DNxHR profiles in libavcodec but the libavformat MXF read/write code doesn't seem to have support for the new HR VCIDs (1270 - 1274), essence elements and other MXF container meta data for DNxHR and yet... FFMPEG can read it's own MXF files created with the DNxHR encoder. I'm guessing the MXF parser can read the files by using the VCID in the *frame* header and ignores the VCID in the MXF meta data/keys... However, more importantly, the files do not "link" into Avid Media Composer (using the MXF AMA plugin.) Is this known to work for anyone else? I'm using MC version 8.8.1 (MacOS Sierra) and when I attempt to link the file there is an error message saying it cannot link but no console log entry saying exactly what it doesn't parse/like about the file. I just need to know what works and what doesn't. Thanks! Alan -- *"Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.
