Is there a way of creating or editing MXF or DNxHD video files in Avidemux or is it a patent issue that prevents work with certain codecs?

QuoteMaterial eXchange Format (MXF) is a container format for professional digital video and audio media defined by a set of SMPTE standards.
QuoteFFmpeg, an open source project added support for muxing and demuxing of MXF and MXF D-10 in FFmpeg 0.5, released in March 2009.[5][6]

QuoteAvid DNxHD, which stands for "Digital Nonlinear Extensible High Definition", is a lossy high-definition video post-production codec engineered for multi-generation compositing with reduced storage and bandwidth requirements.
QuoteSince September 2007, the open source FFmpeg project is providing 8-bit VC-3/DNxHD encoding and decoding features thanks to BBC Research who sponsored the project and Baptiste Coudurier who implemented it. In July 2011, FFmpeg added 10-bit encoding support.[8] DNxHD support is included in stable version 0.5 of FFmpeg, released on March 10, 2009.[9][10]

- may look you're the 1st to make this request
- not certain if this fit's in the developer(s) agenda, given the big time shortage
- so a big maybe if this will happen

this is my personal user opinion, I can't speak for developer(s)
