CMX Notes:
1. The CMX event numbers are sequential beginning with 001—regardless of the EDL event
numbers.
2. Sources are shown as 001 - 004 in CMX and A - D in Edit Suite.
3. An A/B Roll is shown as two lines in the CMX report, and both lines use the same event
number (whereas Edit Suite uses two numbers).
4. There are three types of transitions in the CMX output: Dissolves, Cuts, and Wipes. Wipes are
followed by a three-digit number. This is not the MX-1 transition number.
5. If an AXA Roll is in the EDL, the transition is ignored in CMX.
6. If an A/B/A or A/B/C Roll is in the EDL, the "B" scene will be divided into two events in the
CMX export.
7. All GPI events are converted to Relative In for the CMX export.
8. If a Source event is the "A" source in an A/B Roll, its duration will display as 0.
9. Edit Suite does not store record deck times (except for insert events). For the CMX report, the
record times begin at 01:00:00:00 and show the running time for the production.
