I want Resolve to export a new aaf that links to the media it has already exported.
Or can resolve tell me why the new aaf failed so I can eliminate the clip, or effect, or what ever that caused it not to finish writing, and try again?
Back story:
I export an aaf from Avid (8.3.3), open it and Resolve (14.3) and grade. On the Deliver page I select the Avid aaf settings and render. Resolve will successfully render all the new clips (up to 900) but sometimes it will never finish making a new aaf. The beach ball just spins indefinitely.

Selecting the timeline and exporting a new aaf in Resolve will make an aaf that links to the original media, not the rendered media. Please note that my Avid is on an Interplay storage system AND THER ARE NO msmMMOB.mdb FILES IN THE MXF FOLDER to help me relink.
Some work-arounds I have tried are:
1 Copy all the clips into a new Resolve Timeline and render the whole thing again. A waste of time since the media has already been exported. That may work BUT I will loose all the original Avid aaf’s resizes, Boris effects, and accurate timewarps. I can recreate all that when back in Avid but it is a tedious task open to human error.
2 Make new aafs in the Avid that are just sections of the sequence. So rather than make an aaf of the whole 900 shot sequence, I will make 9 100 shot aafs and ColorTrace and export/render those. They might work, but also a tedious task.
The Resolve is on a Mac 10.12.6
Thanks
