    HI all,
    I’m working on a film right now and having some timecode issues…

    Here’s what i’m working with…
    It’s a 35mm shoot telecined to DVPAL for offline editing. We have Keycodes and Flex files. The tapes all have timecode breaks… which i think are because of a ‘free run telecine’ method. (i think. it’s possible that the telecine technician was drunk and has no idea what he’s doing)

    so my question is… can i dub the tapes to have a continuous time code. or will that create problems with the Flex files?

    thanks, Paula

    Are you finishing on film? Also, do you have burn in keycode and timecode on your tapes?
