  mass interpret footage

  Posted by Alexander Gao on January 20, 2006 at 7:18 am

  Is there any way in AE to interpret multiple pieces of footage at the same time (assuming they all have the same settings and I want to change the settings of all of them)? The reason I want to do this is to make AE recognize several files as 16:9.

  Yep, select the first footage item in the Project window, then “file>interpret footage> remember interpretation”, then select the rest and “file>interpret footage>apply interpretation”.

  Wasn’t that one in the manual… ?

  I’m also interested in a script, Steve is correct, remember interpretation is great and simple, but sometimes I have to revert gamma curve interpretation on multiple R3D Raw files back and forth from REDgamma4 to REDlogFilm.

  Just throwing it out there if anyone else sees a value in an “interpret footage” script…

  Hey guys,

  I don’t know if this is of any use anymore, but I’m working on a script to change the framerate of all footages in an AE Project. I’ll post a link once it’s ready. I’ll try to do one for interpret footage, but that seems like a big task for now. In the mean time, let me know if there’s anything specific you’d like. I’ll see what I can do.

  Here’s a script to change framerate for multiple footages:

  Here’s a demonstration of the script in realtime:

  I’ll see if I can cook up something for mass interpret footage in future.
