Resolve ‘Timecode Extents Doesn’t Match’ Issue
Having a problem with trying to online RED footage from transcoded to Resolve Lite 8.1.
I can get the XML to load in REDCINE-X, and it looks great and awesome – even with all the speed ramps and resizing I have in FCP it still loads up. I have a sequence with all the attributes stripped out as well, and it loads up great too.
The bad news is that nothing I do gets Resolve to match the footage with the timecode on the timeline, it always gives me a ‘timecode extents doesn’t match’ error. Resolve will find all the right clips and bring them into the project, it just won’t link up those clips to in it’s timeline. When the footage is in Resolve, it has a different timecode than the footage in REDCINE-X, shifted just a bit, but not by any consistent number it seems. The timecode between FCP and REDCINE-X matches, it just seems to change when it goes into Resolve.
I’ve tried all the TC options I can find in Resolve, but it doesn’t change, and things like the ‘use drop frame’ boxes are greyed out. I suspect it’s accidentally moving the TC somehow, but unsure what’s actually happening.
I tried re-exporting an XML from REDCINE-X and Resolve had the exact same result. I’ve tried some options in resolve to force match the clip in Resolve – but it’s greyed out on my clips.
It definitely seems like a timecode read issue, but at a loss about the best way to go about fixing it, if I should try to move to another export format or what exactly would be the path to getting Resolve to read it???
Anybody have any advice on where to go next? I’m just a director with an old editing background that’s trying to solve this problem for a small low-budget short.
