You must use a MOV container, MFX is not so good.
h264 is not good for protools and need longer encoding time as preview video.

A other posibility is the AAF Format, to import a full AVID or Adobe Videoproject!
There's no difference between MXF and MOV when using AVE. Avid have said this themselves, as long as it's a supported CODEC. Where have you heard this false information!? I've used MXF for years and not had a single issue. When encoding it can also be faster, as some programmes use the old 32-bit QT engine when exporting to MOV which slows down encoding times. Adobe Media Encoder or Davinci Resolve are my go-to apps for creating DNxHD media, and they work brilliantly.

Also, there is no "special preset" for Pro Tools, but DNxHD 36 is preferred by many.
