3.10 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.
