  • How to solve this in Avid?

    Posted by Alex Ander on June 4, 2012 at 6:30 pm

    Please help to understand why this happens…

    i have a TIFF with 0-16-235-255 gradient…

    When i link (by AMA) it’s look like this

    When i export as Uncomp 422 it’s looks this way

    how to get export looks as original? in waveform i see that 0 & 255 was cut. How to solve that?

    P.S. in FCP 7 export looks like imported TIFF

    avid export vs fcp export

    Thank You!

    You don’t AMA in TIFF files. You have to IMPORT them and convert them to Avid media.

    Thank You, Shane! it works!

    So i need more advice… this test i made after one problem.

    We have a Pilot project in Avid with RED files in AMA. We have sent EDL to DaVinci Resolve. Graded as full range data…rendered. Made relink to graded media in Avid and all video was shifted for 7.3 IRE. and became low contrasted

    Why it’s hapenned?

    The solution is to right click the AMA TIFF file and set the GFX/Video Level to Compress Graphic Levels to video levels.

    Your graphics will then export with the correct levels to other applications.
