  • Avid 8.5, bringing AE .mov export into avid won’t play: Exception: DIDReader::XraiseUnexpectedStreamStatus async file system error

    Posted by Sam Fishbourne on June 6, 2016 at 5:49 pm

    Hi,
    I am getting this error: Exception: DIDReader::XraiseUnexpectedStreamStatus async file system error when I try to play my timeline. This began when I brought in titles made in AE. The titles show up fine, but the timeline freezes and the error comes up after a few seconds.
    Anyone else experiencing this? I have rerendered all the titles…same error.
    Thanks!

    Codec of the files? Did you import with alpha? Or AMA link and transcode? How were they brought over and were they converted?

    Hi Shane,
    Thanks for responding! I imported an .mov from AE with alpha into Avid, and put a luma key on it. What would they have to be converted to?
    The film is in DNxHD 115.
    Does this help?

    .MOV just means that it’s a Quicktime file. That doesn’t say what CODEC the footage is. What CODEC are you exporting it out of AE as? And you can import it so that the alpha is embedded, it’s in the IMPORT options.

    Another approach involves process of elimination.

    Duplicate your sequence twice.

    For the 1st sequence, delete the 2nd half of the timeline. See if it plays without an issue.

    For the 2nd sequence, delete the 1sr half of the timeline. See if it plays without an issue.

    Continue this process until you find the problem area. If it happens for both sequences, you know you have a larger issue.

    you actually don’t need to duplicate and delete part of you sequence for this type of troubleshooting.

    If you mark an in and out on the range of the first half your sequence, and then do a play from in to out (6 on the keyboard?)
    avid will only look at that section for its playback. It will work the same as deleting the back half of your timeline without acutally needing to do that.

    I’ve used this half and half then half it again…then half it again… for years within Avid to narrow down the problem file or section.
