OMF Trouble in Premiere
A few months ago shot some short films on a Sony FS700 and imported them into FCP7 as ProRes422 files. Audio was recorded separately on a digital recorder (make/model I’m unaware of) and was given Multi-Track .wav files for editing. Worked smoothly in FCP.
Then I decided to make the switch over to Premiere CC and the XML transfer went smoothly and it was fine. I know it was not smart for me switch platforms mid-project, but when the clips transferred smoothly I figured I was in the clear.
Now I’m onto post-sound and trying to export OMF files of these short films for my sound editor and I get about halfway through the export process when all the sudden an error screen pops up and says that Premiere has to shut down. In the export screen I selected 16 bit, 48kHz, Separate Audio, Broadcast Wave with 24 frame handles.
During this process, files have been created and put into a folder on my hard drive as well as a corrupt .OMF file. Am I doing anything wrong with exporting the files?
In an attempt to remedy this situation, I attempted to export the XML from Premiere to sent back to FCP7 to export OMF’s, but when I imported the XML into FCP I only got a blank timeline.
I’m on a tight deadline, so any quick response would be wonderful now. I’m really hoping I don’t have to go back and mimic the edits in FCP. Thanks!
