Calibrated Software MXF Import v3 - Manual (Page 89)


Fixed an issue where a Cinegy Long-GOP SD MXF file had a mislabeled Picture Encoding ID and thus was not
being opened correctly.

Fixed an issue where very large (greater than 2GB) single-stream Omneon MXF files did not open correctly

Fixed an issue where DaVinci Resolve DNxHD OP1a MXF files did not open correctly.

Installer is now ‘digitally signed’
Version 2.2.0
 Added new ‘dnxhd’ options in Calibrated{Q} MXF Import Options application. See the ‘dnxhd’ options section in
this User Guide for more information.
 Added error checking so MXF files with large corrupt Index Tables would not open. See ‘Index Error Checking’ in
the Global Options chapter for more details.
 ‘Tag’ P2 Audio MXF files, Avid Audio MXF files and other single-channel audio only MXF files as
SoundDescription version 2 which fixed some loading issues in CatDV
– previously these files were tagged as
SoundDescription version 1.
 DVCProHD MXF files are now ‘tagged’ as with their encoded dimensions in the Image Description; previously
they were tagged as their display dimensions per early Apple guidelines. This should not affect any workflows.

DNxHD MXF files now report as 24bit depth, previously they were reported as 32 bit depth. Depending on the
application, this change may force you to re-render any effects you had applied on the DNxHD MXF file that you
had imported in an application using Calibrated{Q} MXF Import.

Fixed issue with some VC-3(DNxHD) MXF files not opening properly.

BETA support for DNxHD 444 MXF files created by Avid Media Composer 6.

BETA support for DNxHD MXF files captured by ARRI ALEXA. Please note that even though ARRI DNxHD MXF
files may or may not have an embedded ReelName or Sound ReelName in the XML MetaData of the MXF file, in
keeping a consistent workflow with across all the different MXF files we support the ReelName will still be
reported as the UUID of the MXF file and a secondary Sound ReelName is not supported.

BETA support for BlackMagic Design DNxHD MXF files captured by HyperDeck. The separate Video and Audio
MXF files will not be ‘auto-joined’ and will be opened as separate MXF files. In some of our testing, we have found
that sometimes the BMD Audio MXF files can be slightly larger or smaller in duration (plus or minus a fraction of a
frame) than the BMD DNxHD MXF file. These BMD files were created with the public BETA 2.5 Hyperdeck
Shuttle Firmware from March 1, 2012.
 Added support to add a ‘fake’ TimeCode Track for MXF files without a TimeCode Track – when this happens
TimeCode is set to 00:00:00:00 (always NDF if 29.97 or 59.94) at the video rate embedded in the MXF file. This
was done so that (a) the MXF files would have a UUID ReelName and (b) Audio only MXF files could be identified
with the proper video framerate. Please note that Audio only MXF files without any associated video framerate
cannot have a TimeCode Track associated with them.

Added Premiere Pro CS 5.0/5.5 section in the User Guide

IMX MXF with AES3 audio tracks will have not have the audio loaded when trying to play the file in QT Player X
on Mac OSX 10.7 Lion. Please see the “QuickTime Player X & 7” section in the “Mac OSX Applications” chapter
for more details and workaround.

Updated Calibrated{Q} MXF Import Options GUI
