Preserving HD Closed Captioning and Ancillary Data
1099
n
Even though Avid preserves ancillary data, if you move a sequence with a data track to and from
different systems (with and without supported Avid input/output hardware), be aware that when
you perform the editing functions listed in the above tables, ancillary data might not always be
preserved the way you expect.
Legacy Method
When you use the legacy method, ancillary data preservation is subject to the following
requirements and limitations:
You must capture and output the HD media using Avid Nitris DX or Avid Mojo DX
input/output hardware.
n
Software only systems do not support capture and output of HD ancillary data.
Due to software DNx codec performance requirements, you must have a dual quad core
system in order to capture DNxHD 220 or 220x with ancillary data on the Avid Nitris DX or
the Avid Mojo DX platform.
Ancillary data can only be preserved when it resides on the V1 video track.
