This specifies the destination to save the MXF files. Depending on the Disk
mode selection, one or two paths is/are active for modifications.
Important
At startup, only the clips saved into the Path(s) are scanned. This
means only those clips, data included, will be accessible and
display in the XFile list.
To avoid long scanning process at startup, we advise the clips to
be distributed over different paths.
