Avid Integration Guide
Note: When exporting QuickTime reference movies, there should be no source media
on local drives, you should use black instead of Avid Filler, and render all effects.
In Media Composer, you can use the Send To Playback command to transfer sequences
to Vantage for transcoding. This eliminates the need to perform a QuickTime export
and is simpler, in that you don’t need to check export settings, for example. Send to
Playback transfers preserve the composition timecode and support up to 8 audio
channels.
The process is slightly different in Avid Assist, the viewing and logging application. In
Avid Assist, you can directly select a single clip (or a series of shots) and then use the
Send to Playback command to transfer the clip to Vantage. (In the background, the
selected clip is added a sequence before the transfer occurs.)
