  DPX image sequence PROBLEM!

  Posted by Bill Whirity on October 16, 2008 at 4:26 am

  So I exported a few DPX image sequences from RED footage in 2K 2048×1024 from Red Alert.

  When I imported the sequence to After Effects it worked fine. In the project viewer it shows the duration of the clip as being norma ex) 00:00:01:02 for a 1 sec and 2 frame clip.

  I drop that on the comp button to make a comp that matches. That too is listed as 00:00:01:02

  But when I navigate in the timeline of the comp the sequence ends two frames short of the displayed duration.

  And when exported it does the same. It’s been doing this on all the DPX sequences. Any ideas what’s wrong or why its dropping two frames despite the fact that settings info says the duration is normal?

  My Preferences settings for image sequences is 23.98fps. The comp setting say the same, though the duration days 00:00:01:02 then Base 24. Not sure if that’s part of it.

  Any suggestions would be appreciated. I’d hat to have to go re-export adding two frames to each sequence knowing they’ll be cut off.
