Sessions & Tracks : Importing and Exporting Session Data : Import Session Data Dialog : Source Properties

Source Properties
The Import Session Data dialog displays properties for the source session. These properties include source session name, session type, start time of the session, audio bit depth, and sample rate. For Pro Tools 5.1 or higher sessions, the program that created the session and the session’s audio file type are listed.
Text Encoding
Pro Tools allows entry and display of any language characters supported in Unicode anywhere in the Pro Tools application. This lets you use multiple languages in session names, and in path names, file names and clip names.
However, Pro Tools 7.3.x and lower does not support Unicode. When importing data from sessions or OMF sequences created or saved with older versions of Pro Tools, you may need to identify the language encoding used in the imported elements.
To choose the language encoding when importing data from a legacy Pro Tools session:
1 Choose File > Import > Session Data.
2 Choose the language used in the legacy session from the Text Encoding pop-up menu.
