  • FCP to Resolve: Clips not imported due to timecode extent mismatch

    Posted by John Sackey on August 29, 2011 at 1:32 pm

    Hi all.

    I’ve been trying to get a programme out of FCP and in to Resolve all morning via XML. The problem I’m having is speed changes. Throughout the show there a short sections where a clip moves from 100% speed to 702% or 824% (for instance) then back to 100%, this is being done with cuts and flat speed changes, no ramping.

    On some of these clips, not all, resolve will not connect to the media. It cites a timecode extents mismatch as the reason it can’t re-link. If I delete the sequence and re-conform it from the EDL again then some of the clips will have re-lionked but some won’t.

    Anyone experienced this, any suggestions?

    Cheers
    John

    Sounds like mismatched framerates.

    Resolve doesn’t like ridiculous speed changes basically, it might be fixed now but I haven’t had any work from that particular editor submitted to me in some time so i haven’t dealt with these sorts of things for a while. The work around was just to start baking the speed changes in as even if Resolve linked to the clip it would do weird things on the render, either to source or target.

    It was nothing to do with mixed frame rates. I think V9 is supposed to be better with speed changes in general.
