 Keep the AAF and the MXF files together,
also be sure to have field rendering on in the field and scripts tab in
the render options.

 I imagine you would need a
really fast network (Fibre) I rendered from XSI on my workstation to a
firewire drive and then hooked the firewire drive via usb to the Xpress
suite and it was a no go. I tried importing the AAF  to a bin and
it just gave me an error. I didn’t try just dragging the file to the bin
rather than importing

Can all this stuff (AAF, MXF, TIFF/PIC
)be
directly saved onto a network drive, instead of being local??
Some insights on working with XSI
and XPress in this matter? We're running both so this can be a interesting
workflow shortcut.
 
cheers,

the AAF file is native to Avid Xpress, no converting to omfi file, AAF
is instantly imported to the bin and available to stick on the time line.

What if you want to export files from a local machine to say an Avid Xpress
or Xpress Pro suite using AAF is there an advantage to doing this vs. just
putting a sequence of tiffs on a drive and then importing them using the
NLE

The AAF files are wrappers / containers
for the MXF media files, so when you are importing the AAF it's actually
scanning the Avid Media Files folder for the

corresponding MXF file.

The folders are created automatically when you check off create movie and
select AAF format in create movie tab of the render options.
 
 
I am in the process of using this option with our Avid editing systems.
The AAF files import  instantly into Avid Express and Adrenaline,
but what are the MFX media file used for?

I dont have to explain to anyone about things being on your computer 
that you dont want or ask for (a la bernard's spyware trouble) 
 
so what are these and why are they there? I didn't install Avid3D. I 
have XSI not Avid3D. 
 
I just deleted them and if they are there when i restart my computer i 
will really be pissed.
