When capturing clips for offline edit sessions in Avid applications, you enter the tape name in the Tape Name field of the Capture Tool box. After importing the AAF in Backdraft Conform, you recapture all the media from tape. It is this tape name, as entered in the Tape Name in Avid, that will indicate which tapes to use.
