Transcoded media WITHOUT Tape Names, how to fix for color and prep
Hi, I’m assistant editing my first big job and I had to retranscode some of the media given to me by the DIT. I transcoded the original h264, .MOV to DNXHD36 footage in Da Vinci resolve and made sure to add the assist “Assist using reel numbers from the Source Clip Filename” in my project settings. However, for whatever reason one of the mags did not transcode with tape names.
What I’d like to know is how do I add the tape names back into the transcoded footage in order to export out a useful EDL for the colorists? Currently the editor has already begun editing the footage so I would like to solve this issue with as little interruption to his project/media as possible…
Please let me know if you need more information, and I really appreciate the help! It’s my first time assisting a job at this level and I could use all the help I can get.
