[HELP] Trouble reading Pointer file in MXF type file

Ps.: off to work now
Oh Ok, The media container folder always has a .vmf extension. And the .mov pointer file always has the same name as the container folder (except for the extension). There are other .vmf extensions around according to google but only one is a video extension. The ones that I have were made by Grass Valley for their K2 server. Strangely their modern editing applications no longer support the format.
So the easiest thing would be to load a .vmf container folder as a source, then Hybrid would recognize the extension and look inside for the pointer clip and media streams.

Also its great that your app doesn't automatically deinterlace the output to mp4, as I need to keep the interlaced video and discreet audio tracks. Unfortunately all other apps either comb the video or mono the audio Sad

Have fun at work ;-)
