Can I delete the twin MXF file?

[johnwhit5]

I created a DCP on Mac OS X 10.6 (earlier) I have two MXF files. Can I delete the file in the "video" folder or do I need to keep both?

There's a bit about this here.

The file in the video folder allows you to recreate the DCP with slightly different settings (e.g. changes to audio gain) without doing the time-consuming video encoding again. If you don't need to do this you can delete it.

Great! Thank you. I was worried that it referenced it some how. You just saved me 30 mins of transfer time.

Cool. If you're transferring just the DCP for ingestion to a projection system, you don't need all DCP-o-matic's files. See this bit of the manual.
