ENGSoft is a new software application from EVS OpenCube, aiming to simplify the import of ENG files into the Avid editing environment through the application of MXF.The application supports a range of file formats, including Sony XDCam and Panasonic P2, with connectivity over USB or Firewire. Once plugged in, new files are instantly detected and can be automatically transferred to the editing system, or editors can browse directly on the source medium to select clips and sequences to transfer to the Avid.ENGSoft automatically generates Avid-compatible MXF OpAtom file containers, including the Panasonic P2 or Sony XDCAM files and their associated metadata. Since the system embeds the AMT (Avid Media Toolkit) library, seamless attachment to an Avid Isis or Interplay environment is always guaranteed, it is claimed.
