Avid meridian codec Not Working
Guys, Need help here again.
I’ve tried the avid dv meridian codec. But it say general error. May i know what seems to be the problem.
Really need to get this codec working. I am trying to export quicktime to protools so that the movie file can work in protools through a avid mojo.
But everytime i set the settings, avid dv meridian, Least quality, 20:1 interlaced, millions of colors +, and when i click save there will be a general error that appears. SO need to know what is the problem. I downloaded it from a mac os version. And just place it in the library, quicktime. But it jus doesn’t work…
Please advise…
Thanks

Are you trying to use the Avid codec within an FCP sequence or did you post this question in the wrong forum?
If not well I guess you did not know that Avid’s codec will not work in FCP as far as editing on an FCP sequence is concerned.

Ok what i means is compressing it to avid dv quicktime format….
And no i am not in the wrong forum. Am using fCP but need to convert it to avid quicktime…. -
You keep saying Avid DV format, or is it the Meridien codec? Is your sequence 720 x 486? If so, you cannot directly create an Avid DV clip since that is 720 x 480. You will get an error on export.
If your sequence is 720 x 480 and you are trying to make an Avid Meridien clip (486) you will also get an error.

check your other thread … you sound like you’ve mixed up your codecs
export to AvidDV QT codec works fine with FCP, but their freely released Meridian codecs are broken in QT7 … you will need a recent release of Adrenaline or Xpress for QT7 compatible Meridian codecscheers
