I tried searching before I posted this....

Does Cineform have any plans on becoming MXF compliant itself? So when you convert from codecs like XDCAM HD, you retain all the information in addition to the video?

We have interest in this, yet today's NLEs are not very good at handling MXF with a range on codec formats. AVI and (soon) MOV are far more universally supported for third party codecs. Hopefully MXF will get there and surpass AVI and MOV.
