These topics are very interesting to me, and I've tried to discuss them at other times. @MatN The xml format of CinGG is specific and not compatible with that of other programs. There can be no interchange. Andrew has worked on the EDL CMX3600, but it is not fully functional and in any case it is too poor and obsolete (it was born for analog). Perhaps a feasible way would be to make the CinGG xml compatible with OpenTimelineIO (https://github.com/PixarAnimationStudios/OpenTimelineIO), but I have no idea how difficult it would be to create an "adapter". @Stefan Since ffmpeg supports mxf in a basic way, there is an encoding preset available in CinGG; however, I assume you are referring to more advanced features such as timecode and metadata support, so that the SMTP standard is fully respected. Could you provide more details on what is required by this format and what is missing? Do you think it's possible to implement it in CinGG (which also involves implementing timecode and metadata)? [PS: I saw that you are contributing to the AXIOM Beta/OpenCine project; what is the status of the project? I wish you all the luck! https://apertus.org/axiom-beta https://apertus.org/opencine]
