New Pro Tools Features for Avid Video
Peripherals
This chapter describes new support for Pro Tools
with either the Digidesign AVoption|V10 or the
Avid Mojo™ (referred to here as Avid video pe-
ripherals).
Matching File Suffixes for
Digitized Video and Audio
When Pro Tools with an Avid video peripheral
completes a single video capture, it appends the
captured audio and video files with matching
suffixes (such as _01). For example, captured au-
dio and video files might be called Audio 1_01,
Audio 2_01, and Video 1_01 where _01 is the
shared suffix.
On each successive capture, Pro Tools incre-
ments the numbered suffix to the filenames by
one to distinguish the new set of captured me-
dia files from the last. For example, the new cap-
tured media files would be appended with _02 if
the last were appended with _01.
Support for Importing
Additional Types of AAF
Sequences
Pro Tools with DigiTranslator™ 2.0 and an Avid
video peripheral adds support for importing the
following types of AAF sequences:
• AAF sequences containing a video mix-
down track and video metadata track
• AAF sequences with unsupported video
formats, including HD video with frame
rates over 30 fps
Importing AAF Sequences with
Video Mixdown and Metadata
Pro Tools with DigiTranslator 2.0 and an Avid
video peripheral lets you import AAF sequences
from an Avid application that reference an
OMF, MXF, or QuickTime video mixdown and
its corresponding metadata for individual edits.
See the Pro Tools Reference Guide or the
DigiTranslator Guide for detailed informa-
tion on importing AAF sequences.
