  • BWF Import in 5.1.2, not quite there yet…

    Posted by Pierre Haberer on September 28, 2006 at 9:52 am

    Hi there,
    I’m cross posting from the Apple forum because it seems that no one knows about BWF there.
    I just downloaded the 5.1.2 update and was quite excited by the new (at last) BWF import feature. So the first thing I tried was to import some BWF files to see how it works. The files I have at hand are BWF, Polyphonic files, with 24fps Timecodeand with 30fps ND. They were originated with an Aaton Cantar and polyphoniced’ using Majax.
    I have to say that I’m not impressed:
    – The resulting Clips in the browser have a 25fps TimeCode. And it cant’ be changed.
    – The sc/take info, as well as the info typed in by the sound recordist don’t appear in any of the columns.

    Am I doing anything wrong? It should be a straight forward operation?

    Pierre

    BTW: I love the “BWF” – Broadcast Wave Format is the full name – translation in the French version of the Read Me: “Format Wave of diffusion”. Don’t use BabelFish when doing pro translations, please!
