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

For multichannel audio, a single multichannel track is created. Each audio track contained in the MXF file is imported on a separate audio track. The video track from 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) leads to lost references. Therefore, you might want to convert the MXF files to WAV. To consolidate the media files in the project folder, select Media > Convert Files.
