Resolve reading mysterious timecode
Here’s the workflow, I’m cutting fast turn around short form tvcs and need to send them off to grade.
Sometimes coming from TBs of rushes, I want to use the new Premiere Pro project manager in 2014.1 to transcode to cineform media with handles on each clip because there is invariably client editorial changes in online.
I transfer to the colour grader via ftp 2GB of media managed clips in 20-30 minutes rather hard drives of rushes via courier etc. etc. etc.
Everything works great except for one problem. The TC that resolve reads on those media managed clips is wrong. There is consistent timecode between the media managed clips in premiere and the edl used by the grader to conform the edit, the same correct timecode is also read on those same clips in QT7 and FCP7 (just checking the TC those two other applications).
But in resolve the timecode is offset by a random amount on each clip. First frame for clip one in the edl is asking for 10:13:59:18, the closest TC read by resolve in that clip is 10:17:11:08. Likewise for clip two is 02:22:03:22 and what is available is 02:24:41:08.
It’s a 25fps project and I’ve checked at each step of the process that this is always the timebase
As Premiere, the edl, QT7, FCP7 are all reading the same TC, I believe the problem is with resolve but I can’t work out what it is. Any help, ideas, suggestions would be great.
Will cross post this issue across the BMD, creative cow & Adobe forums.
Cheers,
Rob -
