Exporting a Sequence with Data Tracks
When you have completed work on a sequence with a data track, you can export the data track
sequence to create an XDCAM HD file. You must use an XDCAM HD device. The XDCAM
HD file serves as a wrapper for information about the sequence, with links to the media in the
sequence.
The XDCAM HD file exports with the data track and ancillary data, however, if you attempt to
import the same file into your Avid editing system, the data track and ancillary data do not
import.

For complete information about the export process, see “Understanding Export” on page 1005.
To export to an XDCAM device:
1. Connect your XDCAM HD device.
2. Select the appropriate mode on your XDCAM HD device that corresponds to the video
format that you will be exporting.
For example, set your XDCAM device to 1080i 59.94 if you want to export a clip or
sequence at XDCAM-35 1080I/59.94.
3. Select the sequence or clips to export, or select the data track.
4. With an XDCAM HD HD device connected to your system, select Output > Export to
Device > XDCAM.
If you have a sequence loaded in the Record monitor, the sequence is exported when you
select Export to Device.
You can also right-click the clip or sequence in a bin and select Export to Device.
The XDCAM Export Settings dialog box opens.
