Clips are not being found
Hi,
I am working in Avid Symphony 6.0 – and DaVinci Lite 9.1
In my Avid project I have Nikon D800 Footage and Pansonic P2 footage. Most of it was shot at 24fps, though some at 60fps. Working in a 24p project.
I have transcoded my footage to DNxHD – nothing is linked via AMA.
I have also tried consolidating my sequence onto a separate drive – making sure all media is in one place. I have tried setting my AAF to link to, and copy media to same folder options.Every time I bring in the AAF into DaVinci – it says it can’t find 25 of 67 clips.
I also tried removing all of my effects off of my clips to see if that was causing the issue, and I’m still getting the same error message.
Any help would be greatly appareciated.
Thanks!

First thing to do is to browse directly to the folder where your clips should be to confirm that Resolve can see them at all. Simplest possibility is that the clips were exported with a hidden or no suffix.
You can right click on the imported sequence to export a “missing clips” list. Worth a try to see if some kind of trend emerges if any of the clips share some problematic characteristic.

Thanks JPo,
It gives m the option to export a “missing clips EDL” which doesn’t give me the information you were referring too.
Any other ideas?

Nothing “offline”?
Have you tried the browse option to see if the clips that are missing are visible?

Have you simply added the MXF folder containing the media to the media pool manually – I find this usually does the trick.

Also in conform options ensure that “handle mixed rate material” is selected when you first create the project.

Hi, yeah, i’ve tried manually adding the MXF media. But I have not tried the “ensure mixed frame rates” option – where is that? I’m fairly sure that that is my problem.
Thanks for your help.

Project Settings (cog button in lower left of DAVINCI main window) / Master Project Settings / Conform Options
You will probably need to start a new project and set it before you import anything – once you have timelines in the project I don’t think it allows you to change this setting.

Great, thanks Andrew – I’ll give this a shot.

If you are really using Resolve Lite 9.1, on a Mac, it has issues with DNxHD files not being recognized. Only 9.1 Lite for Mac had this issue. You should be using the current 9.1.3 Lite version available on the BMD web site.
