Sorenson Squeeze 11 has the capability of creating a directory with files that can be directly dragged into the
E:\Avid MediaFiles\MXF\1 folder, this means that you can prepare files for import outside of MC - cool - right ?
Well almost. The problem is that sometimes it doesn't work, when you try to play a clip that was imported this way you get an error "PMM_INSUFFICIENT_MEDIA() Player Version of frame duration is longer than actual [7464] (7464)
When I examine the media files and clip in the media tool I see that the clip duration is one frame larger than the media duration - so I can understand the error.
The big problem is that when I approached Sorenson, they said that my version of MC is old (true) and they don't support it. I gave them access to the files and asked them to try it on whatever version of Avid they test on - but for some reason, they ignore my request and give me a link to Avid support.
So now I'd like your help
Can someone please spend a couple of minutes doing this in the V8 and tell me if they have the same problem ?
1) Copy the files from the link below into an empty folder e.g. \Avid MediaFiles\MXF\9999 (203MB)
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/iuvotpf0cv9c2bo/AACSWhYwxHTQf9NaNI9xdySCa?dl=0
2) Open Avid, and then open Tool/Media tool select the drive where you put the mxf files and "current project"
3) In mediatool you will see 4 files that start with 201604041. Double click the clip file 20160404141024_DNxHD_185 and see if it will playback or if you get an error PMM_INSUFFICIENT_MEDIA....
4) Another thing you can check is to see if the values of the "Duration" column. In my case the 3 media clips have a duration of 9:03, and the clip has a duration of 9:04 (one frame off)
5) Delete the files you added in \Avid MediaFiles\MXF\9999
6) just in case - If you have any problem with Avid after this then you should delete the msmFMID.pmr and msmMMOB.mdb in all the MXF directories and restart Avid
7) tell us what happens
Many Thanks
Yonatan
