Flex file problem
Hello,
We received a flex file from a service bureau.
We open the flex file in Cinema Tools, import the batch capture list in FCP, everything seems to be ok.
The start and end time logged in FCP are the same than in the flex file in Cinema Tools.
After the capture in FCP, the start time and the end time of the clip captured are different, between 2 and 10 frame were added.Why?
Regards,

Perhaps you captured with handles?
Perhaps when you imported the batch list into final cut, your sequence setting was not a 29.97 timebase. If you import a batch list with a sequence setting of 24 or 23.98, all frame number in the timecode of the batch list above 23 will be converted. A timecode of 1:01:30:29 becomes 01:01:31:05. This will cause the capture to be incorrect.
Another possibility is you need to calibrate your decks timecode offset as described in the Final Cut manual.
I hope this might help.
