Hi Interplay/Mediacentral users,
After a few hours of searching to resolve a send to playback issue at one of our customers I thought it was wise to share this one here.
If you use XDCAM HD and import pictures/graphics into Mediacomposer and find that the send to playback freezes during the process (at the point in the timeline where pictures/graphics are located), go to your mediacreation settings, open the tab Mixdown & Transcode and select Re-encode for XDCAM bitstream compliance (slower).
For reasons unknown to mankind this compliance is now needed for the transfer manager on the airspeed to be able to transfer the TMF file to itself.
Don't ask me why, Ask Avid... oh wait.. Avid.. why?
