MXF is today the de facto interchange format for creating a professional tapeless workflow in video productions. Avid was one of the first companies to realise this future and has fully adopted MXF. Toboggan MediaTransfer is a gateway for Avid to support any MXF file in the market. Toboggan MediaTransfer allows users to take full advantage of interchange with maximum productivity and is the perfect file-based ingest solution into Avid Storage workflows.

Supporting all MXF camera manufacturers' devices, like Panasonic P2, Sony XDCAM, Grass valley Infinity, Ikegami Editcam along with other MXF devices, Toboggan MediaTransfer offers its users a simple one-touch solution, with hot-folder and hot-swap modes that trigger the transfer process in a fully automated way. The user will be able to track the ingest process, either remotely or locally, using a web interface to check the progress and status of ingest. Acknowledging the importance of metadata, the Toboggan MediaTransfer will auto detect and import the metadata coming from the XDCAM, P2 and Infinity products.

This new product is available in a standalone and a workgroup version. The standalone version will allow ingesting media files in the background while the editor works on his files. The workgroup version provides a ingest station to move files into Avid MediaManager or Avid InterplayT environments. Toboggan MediaTransfer is compatible with AVID UnityT MediaNetwork, AVID Unity ISIS®, AVID MediaManager, AVID Interplay, AVID Unity LANShare, AVID NewsCutter® and AVID Media Composer®.
