3.9 CLIP MAINTENANCE
From XFile version 1.14, you can back up clips manually and automatically
into different formats of backup files.
From XFile version 2.00.30, you can view and maintain all the formats of
backup files in the Clip Maintenance mode.
Important
To be able to view and maintain the backup files having another
format than EVS MXF, you need to make sure that the EVS XML file
including the file/clip metadata is located in the same folder as the
backup file.
