Avid Adrenalin HD export to AfterEffects

[Gooooo]

Hi

We have just been pulling our hairs out about this just recently…so far we have come to a temporary resolution which works but will experiment/test other compressions…i have exported vision as Quicktime
Select Custom – Click on Format Options
Select Compression None
Millions of Colour
Best
25fps (PAL)this is Australia obviously you need 30fps
Click OK
Select Video Only (unless you need both Vision and Audio)
Width Height (depends on Apect Ratio)
Size to Fit
Colour Levels 601/709
Lower Field rendering and Native Dimensions (which should automatically then pop up in Width and Height anyway

May i ask why you are not sending it out as Reference QT into AE?

QT reference is a good way to ensure you don’t screw it up by setting all kinds of weird Quicktime export options.

You should also look at Pro Import AE if you need your sequence recreated in AE with each clip on a separate AE layer. https://www.automaticduck.com/piae/

Thanks for your input. I’m not using a reference file, because I have to move it to another computer off the network! Thanks again!

Then you should simply export with Source Compression so that the movie uses the Avid Codec. I advise against trying to use a different codec and then possibly muck up the settings.
