The MXF (Material Exchange Format) Reader is a DirectShow filter for MXF playback. It reads MXF files and demultiplexes it into its DV-DIF, MPEG ES Video, JPEG2000 and PCM Audio data streams for further processing or rendering. The filter performs the function of both file reader and splitter (demultiplexer) and should be the source filter in a graph.
The MXF Reader filter also supports MXF playlists. For a complete playout solution please see Broadcast Automation Platform.
This product replaces the previously available MXF Splitter filter.
