Activity Forums Media 100 Codec question ?

  • Codec question ?

    Posted by Thomas on August 28, 2006 at 5:17 pm

    I’m having this strange problem when exporting a clip in M100 HD (10.1). Sometimes but not always, the exported clip have this codec -Xfer-. I guess it has something to do with alpha channel. The problem is that i can’t reimport it in M100 without rerendered which is a pain with a 1 hour movie.

    Am i doing something wrong, any idea ?

    What are you exporting (video, audio or both, SD or HD)? What codec did you digitize into? Are you exporting by ref, self contained or what? Have you tried upgrading to V10.1.4?

    I work in version 10.1.4. I export audio & video. The problem appears periodically if i export by ref or self contained. I usually work with M100i codec but the problem appears the same way with m100 HD codec (always in SD). The problem seems to be connected to black clip : the same program exported without black clips at the beginning of the timeline has the right codec in apple i (either HD or M100i)

    Have you tried to create a black image in photoshop and substitute that for any m100 generated black clips?

    I’ve tried that once, and i think it worked. The problem is that i have film archives .mov that i would like to master to tape and their codec is -Xfermedia100- instead of i or HD. Another strange thing about these files is when i want to make a DVD video using Toast (the simpliest way i found), toast refuses to encode in mpeg-2 and always make a really bad mpeg-1 disc. Really strange. Can’t figure out.
