P2 AVC-LongG MXF Export in PPro/AME
1. In the ‘Export Settings’, please choose the format ‘Calibrated P2 AVC-LongG MXF’
2. Click on the ‘Video’ Tab in the ‘Export Settings’ (see picture below)
a.
The ‘Video Codec’ should automatically be set to the Resolution and FrameRate that best matches your
Sequence Settings.
b. The ‘Video BitRate’ will be automatically set to the highest BitRate for the ‘Video Codec’ Resolution and
FrameRate that is selected (either 50Mb or 25Mb depending on the Resolution and FrameRate).
c. Make sure the # Rendering Procs is set to ‘Maximum’ - this means our plugin will use all processors on the
computer for encoding. When set to ‘Medium’ then our plugin will use half the number of processors and
when set to ‘Minimum’ then our plugin will use 2 processors.
d. By Default - ‘Render at Maximum Depth’ is CHECKED – this means that our plugin will render at 10-bit
YUV422. If you UNCHECK this, then our plugin will render at 8-bit YUV422.
e.
Make sure that ‘Use Maximum Render Quality’ is CHECKED if you want the best render quality from Adobe;
however exports could take a little longer.
f.
Make sure that ‘Use Previews’ is NOT CHECKED if you want the best render quality from Adobe; however
exports could take a little longer.

4. Click on the ‘MetaData Tab in the ‘Export Settings’ (see picture below)

Sequence TimeCode’ to enter in a new TimeCode to use.
b. The ‘P2 XML MetaData’ section will enable you to enter in MetaData for the MXF file. By default, the values
o f [Empty] or 0 mean not to use that MetaData. The UserClipName will be the ‘Output Name’ for the MXF file.
