I remember something about the mxf file being hardlinked and not
copied from the "video" directory to the final DCP directory, or moved
as the sound mxf.
But OSX keeps giving the size of the full project directory as about
double the size of the DCP. And had many times the error when trying
to make the DCP sirectly in the usb key where I intended to deliver
the DCP, so just slightly bigger than the expected size, not double.
If the files are actually copied, an option to specify a different
location for the result DCP will be great in many many cases.
Thanks!

Hi Manuel
Yes, it should be. Although not all filesystems support hard links.
Here's a session I just did with an ordinary native Mac filesystem:
CS18:test c.hetherington$ ls

metadata.xml video
CS18:test c.hetherington$ ls -l video/

Note that the ls -l give "2" for the link count on the video file, and
deleting the first one does not change the free space on the disk (only
deleting the second one does).
What filesystems are you using on your USB keys?
Best regards
