Hi guys, Totally new to this so please forgive me if this is a dumb question. I'm going through avid for the first time with a basic line cut i have from an event i put on. I shot the event 1080i 59.97 on BMD Ursa Minis. ProsRes422. I want to bring the line cut in and merge a sound file and export...

My apologies for what is a long, and likely hard-to-follow, post about creating smoother looking 1080p MP4 files from a 1080i source in Avid Media Composer. I'm hoping that I'm not just now discovering something that is a well-known work around. There's a short version at the very end for...

Hello everyone, I am going to travel for work and bringing my Avid editing system. My documentary project has 19TB of footage over 5 external drives that I want to avoid taking with me for travelling. In order to avoid this I thought a solution maight be: 1) transcode all clips in the project from hi...

Hey there, I have a HP Z800 workstation and am running Avid MC 7 with Symphony option. I also have a Nitris DX. I have just added the BMD Teranex 2D to my facility. I also have a Sony HDW-1800 HDCam Deck and a Flanders Scientific. I have a program on HDCam at 1080i59.94 and would like to capture it into...

Teun - I have the same camera as you (I'm also using a Dell 690). MC doesn't accept 1080p/50 files. You can get 'HD Writer AE' which is free from Panasonic that will convert the 50p to 50i. If you keep your camera attached it will use the camera to do the conversion or you can use Squeeze...

System Specs Avid Symphony 6.5.2 MAC Os 10.7.5 2.66ghx quad core While Prepping a session for a mixer we were splitting strereo tracks to mono and found that, once split, audio clips would be shifted down the time line (sometimes one frame, sometimes 10). We determined it was not based on differing frame...

No, it's not a fast import, Pat, as it's straight AVCHD into MC. This is what I discovered (1080i/50 footage - MC5.5.3): 1. If I take a AVCHD file straight into MC, irrespective of whether I have 601/709 or RGB set on the import, it makes no difference. Luminance range is 0 to 255. 2. If I take...

Hey all, I did a somewhat extensive search of these forums and I dont think this topic has been covered. Very sorry if it has. I am on Media Composer 6 and I am working on a professional video that was shot at 1080p in the camera. We use a NanoFlash to record digital files while the camera also records...

Hi Guys, Just to share with you this images about codec for avid hope be helpfull information and waiting for more Thanks

THis is a noob quesition for sure. I am attempting to capture from a Sony Z1 camera via Firewire. The video is 1080i form HDV. I keep getting the error that says "Exception: Audio / Video id unexpectedly no longer coming into the system." I'm on Mac OS 10.7.3, Software version of MC 6.0...
