It’d be great if Nuendo would be able to read Metadata stored in MXF (audio-)files coming from Avid Media Composer.
Our picture department makes such an effort to include all tracks from the production sound so I don’t even need the Field Recorder Workflow, but then Nuendo can’t read the included metadata 
And the data is actually there – XMedia Recode can read it as well, for example.
Thanks!
That is a long time request, and I know they have looked into this a few times.
As far as I remember, it doesn’t seem to be as easy and simple as one should expect.

Thanks for getting back to me. I guess I didn’t search properly, then (or used the wrong keywords).
But good to know that I’m not the only one who’d like that feature. And as always when it’s about open container formats, it’s much more complicated than you’d even like to imagine… 
By long time request, I was merely referring to the betatesters and the people who are involved in the consulting process before new features are build. Or not build.

Hi, Nuendo’s incapability to read MXF metadata is indeed a hindering factor when it comes to receivind material from picture editors.
One of the new features of N15 is MFX video support. Can anyone confirm if this also means the ability to read said metadata? This would hugely tip the scale in favor of upgrading.
Thanks!
Edltranslate, check it out. I’m the developer of the software.
load a XML of the session with mxf files, you see the meta data of linked audio mxf. And then save it and convert all audio to wav, so you have the meta data in nuendo.

Perhaps it is useful to mention it is Windows only. not sure if this works in a Wine ‘bottle’ / emulator on MacOS.. @dietrich does it work in emulators like Parallels or Wine?
No, it is aviable for both!
see on the web site ones more. It has been updated.
Best,
Dietrich
Hey Dietrich, that’s nice, thank you!
Is there a trial of the program I can use to test some conversions? Also, where can I find rhe manual? I searched the website but couldn’t find it.
The price is a bit steep for me to use it for MXF conversion only, but if it can help me import sessions from Premiere without losing metadata and file names, I’d consider it!
Thanks and congratulations on the software!
you can download and start the app. without a license key starts the demo mode. so you can load projects, but not save. However, the meta data of audio you should it see.
Regards
Dietrich
