(Import in the native format/Convert to Grass Valley HQ AVI for import)
You can import a file that is saved in an SxS memory card to your T2 as the original
XDCAM EX format, or after converting it to Grass Valley HQ AVI.
CAUTION: Importing an XDCAM EX source will copy all of the files that are
located directly under the root folder as well as the CLPR and TAKR folders to your
T2. As for files in each folder, only the files that are related to the selected file for the
import will be copied.
NOTE: You can also play a playlist in which XDCAM EX format sources and
non-XDCAM format ones are mixed.
NOTE: You can also convert a clip to Grass Valley HQ AVI after importing it as
the original XDCAM EX format.
