Importing MXF Files

Procedure

  1. Select File > Import > MXF.
  2. In the file dialog, locate and select the MXF file and click Open.
  3. Optional: If a project is open, choose whether you want to create a new project.

    If you select No, the MXF file is imported into the current project.

Result

The MXF file is imported to your project. For multi-channel audio, a single multi-channel track is created. The video track of the MXF file is ignored.

After Completing This Task

  • Nuendo projects reference media files inside an MXF file using relative paths. Changing the relative location of the MXF file and the Nuendo project file (.npr) causes lost references. Therefore, we recommend that you convert the MXF files to WAV. To consolidate the media files in the project folder, select Media > Convert Files.

  • If you have imported a multitrack MXF file in OP1a standard, you can split the created multi-channel track to mono tracks using the Convert Tracks function.
