  • Exception: Cannot quick import a mixed resolution QuickTime movie.

    Posted by Steev Brown on August 1, 2013 at 7:46 pm

    Im working with MC6 OSX Mac Pro – 10.8.3 – 2.8 GHz quad-core intel xeon – 14 gb 1066 mhz DDR3

    I have a completed film that was cut in DNxHD 115 and we’re trying to batch import to now bring everything up to 175. This worked fine for a large batch but now I get “Exception: Can not quick import a mixed resolution QuickTime movie” after selecting clips and assigning them to there respective sources. The audio dosnt mater to me i just need the video.
    If I hit continue it moves to the next clip. Once hitting continue for each clip it still says failed import. When checking the console it says “DeduceProResFromWidthHeightFields() – value passed-in for numFields is zero. Assuming 1 field.
    User abort of batch import.”

    It seems most of these clips that wont batch import have been ProRes transcoded, is that the problem? Because there are some files that it did batch import that were.

    I also looked into bit rate, that some of the clips that did batch import were 16bit even though my import setting is for 24bit.

    Any help would be awesome!
